This is not a good idea. That won't actually make people discuss a proposal during the discussions phase. Instead people will be voting with the conversation about the proposal not being complete. And then we'll be stuck with bad decisions. Andreas Heigl wrote: > 3. An "Anonymous vote during voting period" > That way no one can be actively influenced on their vote. I would be against this. There is at least one RFC where: * I voted a particular way. * Two people who saw that, asked why I voted that way. * I pointed out the sentence in the RFC that they had almost certainly misread. * They acknowledged that they had misread it, and that influenced their vote. I agree there have been problems with people being hassled during a vote. I don't think restricting information is the way to solve that problem. cheers Dan
