Such a vote, whatever the outcome, would have little effect on the GNOME

The debate during the vote could cause a lot of harm discord for the

In employee expenses, I see that Stormy is paid $8,000 per month, with a
discretionary bonus of $1,500 per quarter. Last year she also received a
substantial annual goal-related bonus, IIRC - I don't see this in the
