Hi, > Hmmm, you and some other guys effectively sabotaged voting several > times.
This is not the first time you use the word "sabotage" in this context. I think it's rather strong language; I have openly expressed my opinion that's all. > Did you noticed the side effect, that most of the discussion about > the proposals almost stopped completely No I haven't noticed. I guess it's because summer's coming and people are out mapping. > sabotaging an actually working voting process to more or less > quickly find decisions about how to improve stuff Well I think what may have happened is that I shattered an illusion. It is just possible that people participating in the voting process were under the impression that their decisions are somehow more than recommendations, that they divide the OSM world into "approved" and "not approved" stuff and that they define what people will use or not use. I said that this is not the case, and maybe this has reduced motivation to participate in the process. But honestly, how can you ever believe that a process run by less than 0.1% of participants in the project can have any authority? "Well, all those mappers who don't use the opportunity to present, discuss and defend their views here will simply have to live with our decision"? Come on!
