Funny how people see things differently. I have always thought there should be a shorter window to vote since most votes happen at the very beginning or at the very end of the period. No matter how long we stretch out the middle nothing much happens vote-wise then. Of course I understand people could be considering matters deciding how to vote during that period. I do suspect that if 8 days isn't enough neither will 14 days as people will just put off dealing with it for that much longer.
