Hi Lewis, Folks are just busy (at least I am). My suggestion in general with VOTEs:
Leave them open for *at least* 72 hours. You can always do that and let the VOTE close when you as the person starting it have achieved your desired outcome (aka the necessary +1s you want :) ). Just my 2c. That way it will save you a bunch of emails/etc. Feel free to keep this VOTE open and then wait for lazy people like me to get the time (hopefully next day or so) to review it :) Cheers, Chris P.S. Did I mention you ROCK?
