Oh, that's a bit strong. It would still have some meaning, just not
one that's useful ;-) The question is: is it an unbiased sample of
those who would vote in a GR on this issue? It probably isn't too far
out. Knowing how many of the DDs voting there have previously voted
may be interesting.

think that the bias is so bad that it makes the survey useless. It
certainly displays a consensus of debian-legal.
And, in a futile attempt to head off the inevitable:
From WordNet (r) 1.7 :
consensus
n : agreement of the majority in sentiment or belief [syn:
general
agreement]
