Re: How to close a call for votes in PEPr?

If 5 +1-votes have been casted after 20 minutes and the proposal is closed directly, there will be no chance to get in further (possibly -1) votes. For that, a cron job checks each 24 hours, if 7 days have past and regularly (if a count of 5 votes, not a +5 sum) have been reached. > Also, It might be nice if a proposal-owner could close the voting > prematurely (e.g., to "retract" the proposal, as it were -- which I > have done at least once in the past).

Since a vision of what the c4v will result is viewable from the proposal discussion, hopeless proposals should not be set into c4v mode. :) After all, every pearweb-administrator can delete the proposal in any state (for emergencies).
