Hi, You actually propose two separate amendments. Please don't do that, it smells of politics. :-/

Any (non-default) option which does not defeat the default option - by its required majority ratio is dropped from consideration. The point of wording it the "old" way was that any option which is ranked below the default by a majority is removed before starting the algorithm. That is intentional; otherwise, a case can be constructed where such an option could win, which is Not Good. I'd reject this change. -- Matthias Urlichs | {M:U} IT Design @ m-u-it.de | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Disclaimer: The quote was selected randomly.
