One thing is to change from "single vote" to "approval voting" (one can
"aaprove" any of those, sum up, done, one of the best voting systems for
"winner takes it all" things
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approval_voting) and the other way is to at
least get rid of either "With the next PHP 5.3 release" or "Right after
the end of this vote" if we stick to our about monthly release schedule
that makes a difference of maybe two weeks, which is barely relevant ...
