I've changed my mind. Ratification is a week for sensible reasons (its dangerous), and this is and should be ratification. I think, for a significant event like a win, waiting a bit is perfectly acceptable; people certainly managed to wait this long last time around. I hope that you won't vote against the entire proposal because of this. If you strongly disagree, you could propose an amendment, although I'd suggest waiting and seeing if it's a problem in practice. -Aris
