(What I'm saying is the majority should always win and there > should be none of this confusing offset junk) the offset is there because we felt it makes sense to only allow things that improve the current set of packages. Remember that we don't want redundant packages etc. So if we let in packages "too easy" we might end up with all sorts of issues in terms of having to break API's etc. We are aware that this means that a vote that adds up to +4 would then fall through the cracks. However this just means that there is some more work to do on the package and then it might get through with a second voting. regards, Lukas
