How about making this simpler: plurality wins If the plurality is +1, then it passes If the plurality is +0, then it goes to more discussion (or drop because people are tired). If the plurality is -1 then it fails If there is a tie, it goes to more discussion. So a 4 +1, 5 0, 0 -1 means more discussion. Yes there will be corner cases, and ways to rig things.. there is no system which is going to beat Arrow's theorem. We either deal with it at the time or give up now because there is no perfect solution and no group of people are going to agree that there is a good solution either. -- Stephen J Smoogen. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
