[Gaim-commits] A quick poll about Gaim mailing list

[Mark D. <ma...@ki...>]

Hi!  We're debating whether we should keep the short little [gaim-commits]
header thing at the beginning of the subject line in emails sent through this
mailing list.

Could every single person on this list please go to
    http://kingant.net/gaimpoll/
and vote for your preference?  Thanks!

Sure.  When multiple votes came from the same IP address, the last vote was
the one that counted.

 5 votes for [commits]
30 votes for no header
36 votes for [Gaim-commits]

I was expecting an overwhelming majority to vote for [Gaim-commits].  Like,
90%.  But since that didn't happen, and I agree that not munging the header is
technically more correct, we should remove that header sometime.

My intention of having a poll wasn't exactly to let the masses decide if we
should have a header or not.  It was more because I was curious to know which
way people preferred.  I had a feeling that a huge majority would vote for the
full header, and if that were the case then I think it would be absolutely
ridiculous for us remove something that so many people want (even if they want
it because they're ignorant).
