I am not sure what brings you here but the idea of community votes was one of the top thing when we introduced the voting RFC. Thinking that we do not care what symfony, composer, zend framework, lavahel (if they like to), drupal lead developers think about what we plan to do then we will go back to a very dark time. We may improve how it is done. But killing communities voices is a very bad idea. It is also important to keep in mind the RFCs, blocking ppl were not them. Or ppl having strong opinions for one way or another, me or other, were not part of these communities voices. So I do not think the impact of their votes is that large anyway. Cheers, Pierre
