The vote closing soon after the last vote was not a coincidence, but it’s the other way round from
what you might think. That vote was deliberately made by them just before it was going to close
(they asked me when I was going to close it), because they didn’t want it to fail by one vote. Had
I not got that vote I’d still have closed it when I did, and it would have failed.

If we’re re-opening things, let’s just hold the vote again, rather than extending the existing
vote.
