Now for the explanation. :-) I am a big fan of Wiki, but it does not
replace the mailing list. The mailing list should be used for discussion,
and MUST be used for voting. The mailing lists are archived and provide an
paper trail. They are a record of the project.
Wiki is also backed up and has revision history. I am all for using mailing list + wiki for voting. I find it a huge pain to dig through emails to find out what the result of a vote was.
With the wiki we can see the binding and non-binding votes easily as well as have the wiki tally up the votes and so on.
