Regardless on the Japan voting mishap and the conversation that has occurred since then (most of which was here on the list), I don't think there's enough time to change voting rules for July. Hence, I intend to use the same voting rules that I have used previously: yes, no, and abstain have different meanings. Votes pass if (num_yes_votes > num_no_votes). Rich: please add an agenda item for Chicago to discuss potentially changing the voting rules for future meetings (e.g., good points were made about majority definitions, consensus / near-consensus definitions, etc.), and when/how to transition to new voting rules. -- Jeff Squyres [email protected] For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
