Post by ReneK »

A few starting points for the new Center Release have been suggested, and this should be voted upon.

The title and the text of this vote don't fit.
The text says that the first release should be 1.6 or Zinn's 1.7 or ...
but the title says that it is a vote about the starting point of the first release.
Now, the starting point of a release is not the same as the release itself.
What is the vote about?

I think, that it is very close questions. For example now on the front page of the Center there is 1.6 final and that means, that it is zero release of the Center... But you are right, that better the question of the vote should fit the topic of the thread and be "What should be starting point for new Center Release?"

Ah, if that is the intended interpretation then I will change my vote (to Zinn's 1.7).

Rene, please, change the vote question for discard misinterpretations. Also I think that everybody prefer open voting to see who are not voted yet, looking each time in database is abusing me. I added this feature in the poll options.

Please rephrase. I do not understand what you want me to do.

Rene, the question is:
is this voting about the first center release or about the starting point for the first center release.
The title of the voting and the text are different.

OK, this I can understand.

As I saw it, it was "first center release = last OMI release".

But I can understand how this thought is not so clear.

Would you suggest that I rephrase the title or rather the question?
