Hi Alexander, I would vote for Stefano, because the impressive determination he puts in his "RC-bug of the day" marathon suggest that he would do a lot of work as a DPL.

Indeed, this "version" of the question is fair because, in essence, it
asks what do we think of other candidates _proposals_ rather then what
do we think personally of them. *But* :-) , I believe that I've already
addressed this in my rebuttals where, for each candidate, I've not only
mentioned my "objections" to their proposals, but also which among their
proposals I do like. I do not claim to have reviewed all proposals of
all other candidates, but I've surely mentioned the one I considered
most peculiar in the other platforms.
If someone seeks a specific comment of mine on some specific proposals
of the other candidates, which I haven't addressed in my rebuttals, I'll
be more than happy to post such a comment, but please be specific.
Cheers.

I have a habit of publically (on my blog) disclosing my DPL vote, with explanation, and will probably do so again this year (though that is not by any means certain). However, as I did last time when I ran for DPL, I will not disclose my vote before voting is over. The reason for this is simple: First, I don't finalize my thoughts on how to vote before campaigning is over. I think that's only fair; there might be something that pops up during campaigning that makes me think twice about voting for some candidate, even though I very much like a given candidate or his/her platform. Or, on the contrary, a candidate might have a poor platform but convince me during campaigning. As such, I cannot disclose my vote until I actually cast it, because I could (and often do) change my vote fairly last-minute. Second, during the vote campainging is supposed to be over, so it would not be proper for me to to then disclose and comment on my vote if I'm running myself. -- The biometric identification system at the gates of the CIA headquarters works because there's a guard with a large gun making sure no one is trying to fool the system. http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2009/01/biometrics.html signature.asc Description: Digital signature

So, I apologize, but I'm not going to disclose my leader vote in public.
I believe that there is a good reason for having secret votes in leader
elections (constitution §5.2.2), namely: knowing how you did vote for or
against a fellow DD can get personal. Even if I personally don't think
to be much affected by that: (1) I can't be sure and (2) I don't want to
take the risk to inflict that to the other candidates.
The "why" part of your question is way more interesting, but I believe
it can be answered by rather asking candidates how much they like
specific proposals of the other candidates and why. The rebuttals are a
first step in that direction; if mine are not enough, I generally
welcome questions on proposals of the other candidates that I've not
specifically addressed in my rebuttals.
I hope nobody will hold this against me.
Cheers.
