Ok, if that's what it takes to avoid further confusion, I'll second (or third) a new vote, but all the points you raise have been discussed and the resulting consensus conforms with the points you want to add/amend in the new vote.
Note also that Parsley also seems to be on the point of being donated, so all the 'endorsment' worries seem premature and unnecessary. A point of procedure: can you add a 'binding' vote AFTER the result has been called? EdB On Sun, Jun 2, 2013 at 8:05 AM, Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com> wrote: > My count is now three binding -1's.
