PRESENT is assumed. (**) Poster did not explicitly cast 8.5 and 9.0 ballots, but intent was abundantly clear from the discussion. Totals: TIP #156: 6 YES, 0 NO, 6 PRESENT TIP #157 (8.5): 8 YES, 4 NO TIP #157 (9.0): 9 YES, 2 NO, 1 PRESENT TIP #156 passes. TIP #157 passes for implementation in 8.5. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all parties for their patience in dealing with the highly contentious TIP #157. It is without doubt a compromise that fits nobody's ideal. (Alas, the essence of compromise is that everyone comes out a little bit dissatisfied.) I hope that, now that the vote is past, we can put the differences behind us and move forward to implementing it.
MAK One might be left to wonder what comes of TIP #144 now given that its "POLL" was shown to be passing with the same number of votes in favor, but wasn't officially a vote (apparently - 144 is still listed as "draft")? Do 144 at 157 duke it out now? Or is it over by virtue of 157 being called to official vote first? Or...? (Not that I care for either, but I'm still left with the feeling of "so what?")
