Give us a clear choice between "keep things as they are" or a solid proposal for what we should change *to*, not something nebulous that may or may not be a better choice when we come to a second vote.
I proposed that from the beginning and it was rejected.
Well, I don't think it should have been rejected.
And give us an explicit "abstain" option. L A Walsh is correct - there is a difference between not voting due to apathy and not voting because we don't think the choices presented are good choices.
abstain is just that: no voting. Other choice is "blank vote".
The reason for not voting is important to capture, IMO. That's why an abstention option is important.
and don't you think that people interested on the subject already read this thread? and have had much enough explanations?
I think that the entire discussion has been confusing to follow, with lots of different opinions about what we should do, and that the discussion didn't lead to a clear choice in this vote beyond "change it" or "don't change it". There isn't enough detail on the "change it" option beyond "but how is something we'll figure out later". That's not a good choice. My opinion is that the reasons for making a change make sense, but unless and until I have confidence that there's a solid plan for making a change, creating more chaos is a bad idea. So my inclination would be to vote "abstain" (or "present", or whatever) until more information about how a change would be implemented were made available. But under these circumstances, my vote won't count for anything because it's being counted as being the same as "not interested" or "don't care". I'm being forced to decide between two choices, neither of which expresses my opinion on the matter. -- Jim Henderson Please keep on-topic replies on the list so everyone benefits -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org
