And this sounds like exactly the same argument that you tried to use in 
that case to avoid bringing the issue to some sort of resolution, and as 
a result it rumbled on and on.  If I was being suspicious I'd say that 
your position is a device calculated to avoid putting an issue to the 
vote that you suspect it might go the 'wrong way' - but I'm sure I am 
maligning you, in which case you have my profuse apologies.  But then 
again, accusing me of wanting to bias the vote when I've stated that I 
will support whatever decision the OGB and/or community seems slightly 
unfair too.

No.  We need a decision before then.  2 weeks may be too short, 6 months 
is way too long.
