I'd like to end the voting next Thursday - and with many people
joining in the vote we'll get a result that can be recommended as
"official" positioner for OpenOffice.org 2.0
Oops! didn't see this!
Because the lists have been extremely slow -- my own voting
disappeared 47 hours ago :-( -- I'll keep the voting open another 2
days. Then all the mails stuck in the queue should be delivered (and
perhaps some new ones too).
But I don't know if we can count the result as official:
I know about 9 people's votes:
- Steven Shelton
- Konrad Stobiecki
- Chad Smith
- Mark Harrison
- Adam Moore
- Jean Hollis Weber
- Charles-H. Schulz
- Florian Effenberger
- me (if my mail will reach the list one day...)
Some others made proposals, but didn't vote, but my main concern is,
that many of the most active project members don't seem to be
interested in this theme at all.
I have no idea, if they dislike the proposals, the complex voting
procedure or the search for an official positioner / slogan altogether.
The normal way in a community is that you can assume that all the
people *not joining* a voting are not interested in the theme or
don't have a favorite. But here I really don't know:
John McCreesh posted on Sept. 29th (just before the OOoCon):
I'm also ask for guidance on how to progress the
question of a 'slogan'/'positioner'. When this has been raised in the
past it has generated lots of heated debate - it has been very quiet so
far here on [EMAIL PROTECTED], which makes me think that people's attention
is elsewhere (OOoConf, 2.0RC, etc).
There was no debate at all - and neither he nor Jacqueline McNally
did join the voting. I'd like to hear the opinions of others too:
Deepankar Datta, Daniel Carrera, Sam Hiser, Ian Lynch, Alexandro
Colorado, Jonathon Blake, Lars D. Noodén, Graham Lauder, Claus
Agerskov - just to name some people I believe to have lots of
marketing experience they could share with us.
And Erwin Tenhumberg did post most of the proposals - I don't think
there may be a reason to exclude Sun staff from the voting.
For the people having joined the voting there should be a result -
but perhaps you could tell me, what I did wrong (besides the
complicated voting system).
Best regards
Bernhard
