That's a great result. (In the sense that > unanimity is great.) > I dunno, depends if it's closer to 10% or 25%. 75% in favor of the change is about the worst possible result. It's enough in favor that the change will probably go through, but enough opposed to cause a significant fracture to the community. Of course, I think the numbers in opposition are closer to 10% than 25%. And the numbers strongly in opposition are probably less than 5%. ---- The big question is how many people won't respond at all, and, perhaps more importantly, what fraction of the database that makes impossible to relicense. Based on the poll numbers, with 340 out of 100,000+ responding, that leaves that number between 0% and 99.9966%.
