Hi folks, I recently discovered a fairly prominent use of pairwise voting. The Debian Project, which is responsible for one of the leading Linux distributions, uses the "Concorde Method" for resolutions and for voting in new officers. http://www.debian.org/devel/constitution See section A.6: "Concorde Voting" In short, it looks like they're using pairwise voting, with an STV tiebreaker in the event that there's no Condorcet winner.
