It seemed the same sort of question to me too. It's not obvious what the
right or honest answer is, and it doesn't really apply to the situation.
Branden (aiui) will (would) do everything he can to get the issue voted
on, then'll do whatever he can to make sure the result of that vote is
enacted.
So does that count as taking action to have non-free removed from the
archives or not? Trying to get the vote to be happen could just as easily
be seen as taking action to ensure non-free *isn't* removed from the
archives; and any other action he'll take is conditional on something
he doesn't yet know (the outcome of the vote).
What's the weight of a fully laden swallow? Just answer yes or no, but
you can add other comments later.
Cheers,
aj
