Ha yes, you are right, you can unvote but not vote -1 indeed.
Now, nobody voted at Paul's demand (which should have a subject beginning with
[VOTE] BTW).
So I was trying to find a way to take into consideration the 4 votes there.
But this is a code change, so only binding votes (committers's votes) will
finally be taken into consideration.
Anyway as you certainly seen, I made another proposition and will create a new
Jira issue with a patch and forget about merging the SEO branch.

Jacques,
Like the explanation in the link you included explains
JIRA allows you to *vote* for a particular issue -- "voicing" your
preference for that issue to be resolved or completed
voting in a JIRA issue doesn't allow you to vote 0 or -1 (or even
fractions).
It also explains:
At any subsequent time when logged in, click this again to remove your vote.
Meaning that you can retract your +1 vote.
Wether or not you can vote -1 (as per ASF principles) is something that
should be taken up with the party responsible for JIRA. Until that is
resolved I advice not to use the JIRA voting mechanism for any other
intention than expressed in its (ASF specific) documention.

Pierre Smits

Pierre,
I don't agree you can "unvote": https://confluence.atlassian.

At least I can, could it be related with permission in ASF Jira? This
would then not make sense and would need to changed.
You could also say that someone can't vote 0, but then, since 0 has no
vote implications, a simple comment expressing your opininon would feet.
You can't also use fractionned votes, but I think having +1, 0 and -1 is
enough to vote on a Jira issue

Jacques,
Voting via a JIRA issue won't work, as it doesn't allow voting in
accordance with ASF principles (see
here<https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html>).
It only allows to vote +1 (at least I can't vote otherwise). That being
the
case, voting in JIRA can be regarded as an expression of interest and make
the mechanism a means for ranking or a popularity contest.

Hi Paul, all,
I think it would be easier for everybody to directly vote in the Jira
issue itself (there is a mean for that in Jira).
I can understand Anil's worries about replacing how things work at the
moment. So I made a proposition (your point 2). To clarify things, I will
work on it and create a new Jira issue with a patch (rather than a branch
now).
IMO the vote should take place in this new Jira issue, for at least 2
reasons:
* people will not have to read all the comments to understand the
situation (I will explain in a new description)
* reviewing a patch is easier than reviewing a whole branch

Hi everybody,
there has been a lengthy dispute over backporting the SEO-Changes into
trunk
(OFBiz-5312). Since this is a rather important topic for the ecommerce
application, I would like to bring this up for a vote.
I tried to collect the different implementation methods and pros & cons
in
the following JIRA comment:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5312?
focusedCommentId=13940403&page=com.atlassian.jira.
plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13940403
So let me hear what you think, should the branch be backported?
1) Yes
2) No, but we should apply to ecomclone
3) No
