(This is hardly an internals topic, and I'm hesitant to reply on this =
list, but=85)
FWIW, I think it's valuable to see what other people have voted. For =
example, if I'm looking over an RFC and see that my opinion is in =
opposition to someone else I respect in the community, it may cause me =
to reconsider. (e.g. if I noticed that I'd voted against Sara's vote, it =
would make me wonder what I missed).
