Same here. I can understand if Laura doesn't want to take on the responsibility of turning down one of the teams - which we have to, unfortunately. The problem with whatever voting scheme we come up with is that we cannot easily determine who is eligible for a vote, so while such a public vote may appear to be democratic, in reality, it probably is not and throwing a coin would be a fair alternative. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Oct 22 2009) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ ::: Try our new mxODBC.Connect Python Database Interface for free ! :::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
