Hi Jacopo,it was not a new thread but a reply to Scott's email with an edited subject. The header says:

So it's technically correct that mail clients and mailing lists archives
show the message as part of the thread.
You must write a new email to avoid this.Though I mainly focused on vote threads in my initial mail, because there it is most important, I think it should also apply in general. We often have a discussion that spreads into several other discussions and that is not easy to follow. We need a little more discipline to make discussions readable and easily followed by readers.
That might help to avoid discussions drowning and being not recognized. Regards, Michael Am 25.09.16 um 11:42 schrieb Jacopo Cappellato:
Hi Michael, from what I see, the discussions are happening in a different thread that Jacques started with subject: "OFBiz specific rules on lazy consensus [was Re: [VOTE] Put the Flatgrey theme in Attic]" I suspect that some mail clients may group them together under the same thread, causing some confusion.

A vote thread is meant to collect votes and should contain -1, 0, +1, (maybe some remark on why the vote is cast as it is) only, to make it readable and help the vote owner to evaluate the results easily and without errors. Direct responses to a vote thread should only me made regarding the vote itself (like false votes). Every discussion resulting out of a vote thread can easily be started with a new mail, a clear new subject and a "was: <vote thread subject>". Thanks, Michael
