 Hello everyone,

 Given the vast number of possible choices to consider when defining
 new PROPERTIES values [1], perhaps we should create a ballot and
 hold a vote on definitions that people have submitted. I suppose
 that voters would be able to vote yes or no on each proposed
 property definition and they would also be able to write in one or
 more alternative names for the definition. I don't know what the
 best method(s) to carry out a vote like this would be. Does anybody
 have any suggestions?

have the council sign of whatever compromise looks like it made it way 
through.
the current process seems to work very well, me thinks.

thanks for your effort, BTW.

best regards
Thilo


 Thanks,
 Zac

What's wrong with just discussing it until we agree? Why do you think a
compromise is necessary?

I think voting might be an interesting approach. We'll see if anyone
else is interested. I don't know yet. :)
