We are the only ones who decide what to vote for, therefore if the options are wrong, something went wrong earlier in the process. If a blank option is necessary, it shows that the project has a problem, and that is not solved by protesting with a blank vote.
It isn't solved, but it's an indicator.
Okay, what I meant to say was - if someone is not happy with a voting process, don't wait till the end to file a protest vote, do it before the voting starts.
Which requires that some voter really understands that the options are wrong and not his personal preferences are unusual. A blank text entry field 'none of the above, other: [___________]' might help. Ususally people are lazy and dont type into that field. But if surprisingly many people do, it might make sense to evaluate the freetext, and see if there is a pattern. That again, would not help with the current vote, but maybe with the next. cheers, JW- -- o \ Juergen Weigert paint it green! __/ _=======.=======_ <V> | jw@suse.de back to ascii! __/ _---|____________\/ \ | 0911 74053-508 __/ (____/ /\ (/) | _____________________________/ _/ \_ vim:set sw=2 wm=8 SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) SuSE.
