I agree with locking the page down.  I don't have any problem with the
system as proposed but I think we should add a second round of voting.
Lets shorten the initial vote to 7 days.  If you miss out on the
voting in the first round there's still a second round.


That wouldn't bother me.


Take the top 5 (weighted) choices of the PMC.  If the users top choice
is something that is not in the top 5 then substitute the 5th choice
for the user's top choice.   Then repeat the voting for another 7
days.


I dunno.  I think maybe the PMC should discuss our course of action  
if the community's vote is vastly different from our own.  We may  
decide to go with the community's choice instead in an effort to  
build momentum -- or we may really not like their choice and choose  
to go with our own.

One thing that isn't 100% nailed down is the actual voting.  Do we  
want to post our votes to [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Or [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Or setup a quick web-

I think all votes should be to [EMAIL PROTECTED]  The purpose of the contest  
was to get people to subscribe there anyway.  I don't have a problem  
with PMC and community votes going to the same place.  I do think we  
need to keep two separate tallies, but I think if the two groups come  
up with vastly different results we should seriously consider whether  
we want to stick to our guns or not.
