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!

Thanks
-Vincent
