It was great to hear from everyone at the meeting over the phone!

I don't know where "thought-police" comes from. I wanted to encourage
you to have a conversation with Guido about values.

If you (like me, and as I understand it also Rob and those who +1:ed
Rob's mail) think that electronic voting is a bad idea and you know
him personally then he may listen, if you talk with him about how
you think that it was a bad idea for him to work on that.


But I think it's clear from this thread, from the pad meeting notes,
and from the lack of a thread back when I originally brought this up
(when Commons Conservancy was first mentioned) that I am alone with
my concern about how poorly Commons Conservancy suits CrypTech, and
it seems that a sufficiently large part of this core group fears
intellectual property problems with a "Radically Open BSD License."

That I did not expect.
