Let's see what the votes were, and decide like a democracy :) (I can understand why the ASF has a voting system):
Yes, and most ASF projects exercise the voting system only among committers (i.e. only committers votes count), also -1 from a committer usualy means a veto, so no matter how
many +1 there are, -1 is no go.
Well, that's all good for code... And if everyone can agree based on merits :)
We probably will do the same because you cannot just take votes from everyone who has happened to read the message and cared to reply without defining what's the quorum, e.g. Randy, who is an active doc maintainer, didn't vote.
Randy writes win32 docs, the discussion doesn't apply to him.

hmm :)
no prompt

It seems to me like '%' and 'root#' wins. I hope it won't cause too much controversy :)
I'm fine with any solution which uses some prompt, I think the 'root#' prompt is wrong, because with 2.0 we are moving more into systems where there is no such a thing as 'root'. And therefore I've suggested 'su' as superuser (not su(1)), which is a generic concept. The second reason I've mentioned is the alignment of the command.
But on those platforms the prompts won't be '%' or '#'!
Hmm, still no go for some short name before the prompt? (mp == mod_perl?)
mp% perl Makefile mp# make install
That one seems fine for me actually. New vote?
