My intention with my "PROPOSAL:" mail was to gather those numbers; I
think those people followed up with a "+1" (or the opposite) grokked
that intention.

So the numbers in that thread be gathered accurately without regard to
who's loudest -- we don't count someone twice just because they posted
twice.  Now, it may not have been clear that the thread was meant to
take this count, and we could have a separate "VOTE:" thread if we
really want to, but my strong impression from the existing thread is
that we already know how that vote would turn out.

I thought he has, and has stated so.
