This just appeared on u.n.n.c. (this forward isn't crossposted)

My thanks to Pedt for running the vote.

I was wondering why it hadn't happened here.

Pedt has posted it in urg, it arrived with Jane's copy on my news
server.

I also notice that several voters on both sides are not names I would
call
regular or even casual posters here,

That is because many use spam proof names, when posting to news
groups.
To vote one must provide a verifiable e-mail address.

So do I, but my normal handle, my spamtrapped address and my proper address
went into the boxes on the voting paper which was obviously catering for
such things, and I notice that my proper email address has been spamtrapped
in the results, but my normal posting handle appears as is.
