The issue I have is that only a tiny percentage of the overall membership (based on subscribers to luv-announce) bothered to vote or turn up, so you can't really claim that the vote represents the views of the members. I suspect that the overwhelming majority are thoroughly indifferent, as indicated by the total vote.
I probably missed this somewhere amongst all the noise, but how many members does LUV actually have on luv-announce? More facts & numbers are always handy in a debate. Personally, I'm glad LUV deferred the decision. Throwing in such a controversial (and effectively irreversible) issue to the vote, so close to the AGM, was always going to be a bad idea.
