1. This vote was not meant to enforce all the code to be changed. If this vote will pass, we should change *only* the line "Apache POI" to "Apache POI, Apache Poi" at "The Apache Software License" (This will be done by myself) ... and from 3.0
2. There's nothing to be related to the existing bugs. Naming is naming, bug is bug. 3. I think Nicola and Stefano's opinions are important. They are our *advisor*, *mentor*. We really respect them and I think they have right to participate in this vote. (if this issue was just a coding issue, of course I did not convene them) 4. This vote is equivalent to "Poi to be known as POI in the future?". 5. Ryan, Poi is not "taro-root" ethnic food. Hawaiian ethnic food is "poi", to be precise. The naming "Poi" was just derived from the name of this food, just as "Apache Cocoon" is not related to the movie as well as silkworm. 6. I assumed your opinion might be [+-0], from your statement earlier , Andrew. 7.
