Agreed on the toxicity and negativity, but I still think it is important
to get a sense of everyone's thoughts, not just those of us who participate
in this thread.

I wasn't suggesting a formal vote. I was suggesting a survey, using an
existing mechanism. We could also use Google forms (like Modularity did),
but that'd make the results less visible and some people don't like
Google. Also, the voting mechanism ties into FAS ID's and has restrictions
on who can participate (users with two different groups right?). It'd be
hard to enforce something similar with Google forms.

I think we need to involve everyone who CPE works with in one forum,
otherwise we'll likely arrive at maintaining two separate projects,
one just for Fedora and one for CentOS and Red Hat. Perhaps that is
what is best though, who knows.
