Hi devs, So far 3 committers have expressed strong doubts (or are even against) this vote. For me it means we're not unanimously in agreement and thus I prefer to retract this vote for now.
I still believe the proposal is better than the "fake" vote we're currently doing but it's not all that important :) What's important is that we regularly get new committers and new blood!
