I suggest that if you want a vote to rather do it like this: 1. a [RFC] for penalty suggestions for the case of a developer causing another to leave by some kind of action that is generally considered wrong. Collect all suggestions that have at least one secundant for 1-2 weeks 2. a [VOTE] about which of the suggested penalties if any to apply to past cases, there must be the option of "no penalty" of course 3. a [VOTE] to select an impartial judge (preferably someone from outside FFmpeg) to make the decission about to which people the penalty applies, you dont want a "how many friends does X have" vote and voting about ones peers can alienate and split communties or something along these lines, not saying i consider such a vote a good idea nor that i dont ... but giving fair and appropriate penalties is hard [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB No great genius has ever existed without some touch of madness. -- Aristotle
