There was a thread on foundation-l where this matter was discussed prior to the
vote, where I've laid out some of our (WMF's) views on this issue:

http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/foundation-l/2010-July/059711.html

Improving the user experience of Wikipedia for new editors is a matter of
continuing research, development, and conversation, and we'll continue to
engage in all three of those activities. But, for the reasons outlined in the
above message, we're not going to simply roll back the UI change (even if the
poll had produced an actual mandate to do so rather than a tie). 

I'm not at all meaning to discount the fact that many people in the active
editor community (in particular in the German Wikipedia) regard Vector as a
step back. As outlined above, the primary objective of Vector is to support new
users in becoming engaged in the editing process. I'm hopeful that the
conversation will now shift into a more constructive framework so that we can
best address the needs of different user groups.
