The crux of this (and its the case with most other OSS projects without
a dedicated voting system) is that the "votes" are scattered throught
various threads. There is not a proper place where people can cast (and
update) their vote. As such anyone majority is just a snapshot of who
cares to comment on this thread (again and again since both sides have
people unwilling to give in).
