Hm, yes. I've been busy and delayed my voting for too long. I'll get
my acts together in time.

I hope the rest of us will do the same.

It is sad isn't it, if only a quarter of the d-ds care to vote on a
issue a lot more important than the DPL election.

Maybe it only means that the issue doesn't have the importance some
people would like to give it.

Editorial changes are not an issue ;-) (feeding the troll)

Maybe are they fed up with politics?
Or maybe do they think the wording of the current DFSG is fine?
Who knows ...

Do we have evidence that votes are evenly distributed throughout the
voting period?

No, to the contrary, although it isn't very far off ignoring the
irregular voting frequency, usually hopping based on call for votes. See
[1]. Note that this thread is very likely the cause for the current jump
in number of votes. Active campaigning for voting might help[2]!

See [3], [4] and [5] for older graphs of past votes this year.
Fortunately, it seems the last 2 days or so feature usually a 'just in
time to vote' race to the ballot box.

[2] But maybe all those voting now would otherwise have voted just
before the deadline, nobody knows...

Ah, so you mean that who gets to be our main PR person in the next year is
more important than the time and content of the next release? No wonder we
don't get any work done :P
