Hey Lewis, FYI my reply to you in context on the Gora list:
http://s.apache.org/49d In general, I just let the VOTE stay open for *at least* 72 hours. That way folks that are busy/lazy/whatever have a chance to still chime in. The truth is, as the one that called the VOTE, you are the one pushing for a particular desired outcome, so just wait till you get it :) Then when you are satisfied with the outcome, so long as *at least* 72 hours have passed, you are welcome to call the VOTE closed, and then move forward. Great job pushing this forward. My 2c.
