(This is hardly an internals topic, and I'm hesitant to reply on this list, but…)
FWIW, I think it's valuable to see what other people have voted. For example, if I'm
looking over an RFC and see that my opinion is in opposition to someone else I respect in the
community, it may cause me to reconsider. (e.g. if I noticed that I'd voted against Sara's
vote, it would make me wonder what I missed).
