Either lots of people didn't see the notice, didn't feel there was sufficient information to decide or they just don't care about whether or not the organisation continues in its present form.
I would hope it was the second reason, but I fear it is the last and part of what I feel to be an increase in apathy in society generally.
For a regular AGM I think in most cases it's OK to not vote. If you believe that all candidates for a position are willing and able to do a good job then it's OK to not vote for them. As the AGM has little in terms of Linux technical content it's understandable that people don't attend. For this motion in particular I also don't think it's a big deal when people choose not to vote. There was never going to be a significant change that impacts the members either way so it shouldn't be a big deal. The thing that disappointed me was the number of people who aren't involved in contributing to LUV who suddenly felt the need to "contribute" to this discussion. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
