This may be a little premature, but may I suggest that this might be the
point to split the mailing list in two... one for "users", and one for
"developers".  Issues coming up for vote could be advertised in the
"users" mailing list, but I wouldn't want to see the user mailing list
cluttered with +1/-1 replies whenever a voting issue comes up.  That
should be reserved for the devel list.  Those who just want to use
Tapestry can ignore "devel" and just watch "users".

Any thoughts?
