Daniel, I'm not teaching you anything you don't know. I'm just reminding you of how voting actually works at Apache. I'll draw your attention to when the OOo incubation proposal was sent out, Sam sent out a ballot like this [1]: "Please cast your votes: [ ] +1 Accept OpenOffice.org for incubation [ ] +0 Indifferent to OpenOffice.org incubation [ ] -1 Reject OpenOffice.org for incubation This vote will close 72 hours from now." However, the votes that were returned were [2]: "Binding: +1: 41 --: 1 -0: 1 -1: 5 Non-binding: +1: 45 +0: 2 ±0: 1 -0: 1 -1: 8 " I did not see any complaints at the time about how the votes were cast, including of the -0 from an IPMC member.
