You vote is meaningless since it lets IPs vote. We have only 23

This could be intrested people from the ML that don't work on the
debian-amd64 team (yet) or any person with multiple IPs like any
dial-in person has.
Do you really, honestly suspect ballot stuffing in this case?
Are people here really that petty?
Yes, you get all sorts of idiots on the lists.
There are more than enough people on the list to account for
the votes:
mastermind% grep -h ^From `pick +debian --list-id debian-amd64 last:5000` | sort | uniq | wc -l
149
Are you suggesting that the opinion of interested people from the
ML is meaningless?
No, I'm one of them.
I've been here from the beginning.
Any other attitude is not open source, although in what I have
previously stated, obviously I can understand a need for a protectionist
attitude.

P.S. I voted (only once) for amd64.
I can appreciate what AMD have invested in open source.
They have, at the very least, acknowledged the existence of open source
as existing in the market place. What has this project been based on,
after all.
Consequently, if I was a fully code contributing member of the project,
I don't believe that I would have any hesitation in recognising that.
Vote 1 for AMD64.
Regards,
David.
