I think you are mistaken. If you had a presidential election in a country where there is a run- off round to be held if no candidate reaches more than 50% in the first round and you then hold a run-off poll with a disqualified candidate, this would be election fraud and you would hear about it prominently in the evening news. Unless this was in a law-less banana republic, the run-off poll would have to be repeated. In fact, the entire election may be declared invalid. Evidently, the way this project is mismanaged fits the description of a law-less banana republic quite well and you may not care. However, I wanted to mention this anyway because there have been people here who were earlier lecturing others about democratic credentials. It seems that this was just rhetoric, all talk and no walk. It also matters because of the signal it sends to potential supporters/sponsors. The charter mentions that one of the objectives for the project is to "do things right". How likely is anybody going to believe that if the project can't even manage to organise a poll and follow proper procedure? rgds benjk _______________________________________________ Openpbx-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openpbx.org/mailman/listinfo/openpbx-dev
