As Alan Coopersmith just alluded to, it's not up to the OGB to
mandate a vote. (Nor is it up to Sun of course); and among those
who do have the power -- Community Groups and their Contributors
-- there isn't a collective push to put it to a vote.
Thus, concedingly, +1 from me too, which I'm declaring simply
because I'd like to be "on record" as among those who dissented
-- albeit from what appears to be a very large majority view.
