I agree that this is a minor issue, and I agree that the information is available by searching the archives. However, searching the archives to get a summary of what was voted on is neither trivial nor convenient for most people. For me, I would find it difficult to figure out what the PSC had voted on and what the result was.
Should we care? I think we should because this promotes the openness of the PSC to the community and I will volunteer to do the grunt work if necessary, but I think the onus is on the PSC member who brings an issue to vote to record it somewhere.
