Debian decides to allow secret votes
Apparently by a single vote and the legitimacy of the vote is in question due to some technicality I didn't care to reread until I understood. What I don't understand is why the project is NOT already secret voting? Do not most free democratic countries practice 'secret ballot' voting specifically because not doing so caused all kinds of problems like voter intimidation? I googled the first three that came to mind (france uk, usa) and they all seem to do so.<p>Anyone associated with the Debian project have any insight on why voting is not secret and/or any other large os projects doing the same that could chime in?
