The usual turnout for RFC votes is more like > 30. If it's something very controversial, maybe 100. Wow. From a participation standpoint that seems pretty pathetic. If 30 is the average that means most people never vote. I would have assumed that having a vote would mean that people would be expected to vote periodically or if not then loose the privilege. #jmtcw -Mike -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php Maybe this should be the case? Not voting within 6 months or 12 months on a single RFC would mean you’ve either moved on with your life and lost the voting right… I think that’s similar to parliament systems… You stop having a senator vote as soon as you leave the senate(doing something else with your life), you can pick it up whenever you’re back to be active… --- Sent from Mail for Windows 10
