What's wrong in convincing people that your idea is OK (or that it's not OK, for that matter)? Isn't it kind of the whole point of discussing it? > want to share their vote option, can still do that in the mailing list > where some already > justify their votes. So now parallel to voting we get threads announcing everybody's votes. Yay, more noise! Or, even worse, given current tendencies, somebody submits a proposal, couple of people say "yeah good idea", then vote happens and somehow there's 30 "no" votes without any explanation - and without possibility to fix it since by the time the proposer knows it the proposal is already declined. It wouldn't be very encouraging to submit RFCs with such process. -- Stas Malyshev smalyshev@gmail.com
