All-- I completely slacked on counting up the votes for the code-names for JSPWiki 3 and 3.1. Here are the results:
3.0 --- Haddock 8 (2 first-place votes from Janne + Dirk, 1 second-place vote from Andrew) Flounder 5 (1 first-place vote from Andrew; 1 second-place vote from Juan Pablo) Medusa 3 (1 first-place vote from Juan Pablo) Albacore: 3 (1 first-place vote from Murray) Skipjack: 2 (2 second-place vote from Murray) Scrod 1 (1 first-place vote from Andrew) Yellowfin 1 (1 third-place vote from Murray) 3.1 --- Albacore 8 (2 first-place votes from Janne + Juan Pablo; 1 second-place vote from Andrew) Flounder 3 (1 first-place vote from Dirk) Blackfin 3 (1 first-place vote from Andrew) Bigeye 1 (1 third-place vote from Andrew) So, by your votes: 3.0 will be called Haddock; and 3.1 will be called Albacore.** **Recognizing that this is a super-late report of the votes, can we get a quick +1/0/-1 vote on whether we agree to these names? If not, I'm happy to have a re-vote. Andrew On Sat, Feb 28, 2009 at 11:24 AM, Andrew Jaquith <[email protected]> wrote: > Good points Terry!
