Until the webpages update, I can confirm that this reading of the
options is correct.

Agreed.

I am voting FD, unless this is clarified.

As I understand it, it goes like this:

Choice 1 -> Main Proposal (Charles Plessy) + Lucas Nussbaum's Amendment A
Choice 2 -> Peter Palfrader's Amendment
Choice 3 -> Lucas Nussbaum's Amendment B


Peter started proposing an amendment to Charles proposal,
but it become an alternative because they agreed on have both
options, and Lucas added the directly opposite option so people
instead of vote "Further Discussion" can explicitly vote: "Go
ahead and do it".

One way or the other, and if I'm not totally wrong, the
main proposal was "amended", the final result of texts and short
lines should reflect the consensus on changing a proposal or
adding an alternative.

It seems that the "mapping" between the proposal and
amendments is not direct, it requires combining the proposal
and the amendments. :)

Hope this helps.

Kind regards

It doesn't look like that.  As far as my reading goes, it's:

Choice 1 -> Amendment A
Choice 2 -> Main Resolution
Choice 3 -> Amendment B

This is very unfortunate, because it's not at all clear. Too
confusing, unless you've followed each and every mail regarding this
vote.

Neil, please, do include the options' titles in the webpage, so that
it's really clear which is which.

I confess that the mapping between the ballot options and what's
published on the above URL is not crystal clear. I presume the order
does matter and that hence we have:

- Choice 1 -> main resolution
- Choice 2 -> amendment A
- Choice 3 -> amendment B

Can please the secretary or an assistant confirm that this is the case?

In the future, it would be wonderful to have the "short summaries"
used in the ballot reported in the vote page, possibly as titles of
the various sections.

Thanks for all the (possibly not exciting) work on this!
Cheers.
