A poll like this would have an inherent problem: it's ineffective to have *only* the people who are already in a place vote on whether a measure to get new people into the place is a good idea. This is the same as the NIMBY problem in municipal politics: if you give the residents of any area too much say over development in that area, they will always tend to oppose it on the grounds that it's bad for *them*. They have no inherent motivation to consider the interests of other people who might want to live or work in the area, but who cannot. -- Adam Williamson (he/him/his) Fedora QA Fedora Chat: @adamwill:fedora.im | Mastodon: @adamw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx https://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ 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 Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
