And the other threads on this subject clearly shows that. They
are not simple Y/N, but fairly long, well written posts. And
the opinions in those post realy *are* important.

I didn't say that either. I said that you actualy
have to have more then half the list members voting
Y *or* N to be *sure* what the majority thinks. Simple
math. But yes, you have now, what is it, 5 "Y" and 0 "N" ?
So the tendency is pretty clear, statisticly speaking. :-)

On *this* thread yes, not on the other threads on this subject.

It's +46 70 524 1690, if there's still anything unclear.
(Observ swedish office hours).

>  to find out who will win.

Oh, I'm sorry, can't answer *that* and besides,
I don't think it matters for the actual case at hand.
And also, I don't think that  "to win" is a suitable phrase
anyway, there are *no* winners in this mess...

I'd vote for giving this a couple of days of rest
to see what comes out of it.

Best regards and take care everyone !
