Package: tech-ctte

Hi,

I'm asking the tech ctte to propose the following GR. Reason for going
via the tech ctte is that this is really only relevant for the tech
ctte.

A.6.3.2 currently says:
| An option A defeats the default option D by a majority ratio N, if
| V(A,D) is strictly greater than N * V(D,A). 

This means that if we need 3:1 majority, we still need more than 3:1
majority, which is with only at maximum 7 people voting relevant. (The
same applies for normal GRs, but with the number of developers, it's
way less relevant.) (If we are 8 people, this statement means that if
6 people vote in favor, and 2 against, we haven't reached
3:1-majority. Which is of course wrong.)


Therefor, I propose to replace this by:
A.6.3.2:
| An option A defeats the default option D by a majority ratio of 1,
| if V(A,D) is strictly greater than V(D,A). An option A defeats the
| default option D by a majority ratio of N, if V(A,D) is equals or
| greater than N * V(D,A).

(I don't like the ways it's written - better ideas?)
