Agreed. I guess Manoj needs the final form so he does no extra action:
I think current status of Proposal-D is funny: (at vote.debian.org)
Here is one:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Proposal D: Rescinds the previous GR, reverting to the version 1.0 of the
social contract.
The actual text of the GR is:
This amendment deletes everything but clause 1 of this proposal,
so that the entire proposal now reads:
1. that the amendments to the Social Contract contained within
the General Resolution Editorial Amendments To The Social
Contract (2004 vote 003) be immediately rescinded.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thus this web page should be more like:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Proposal D: Rescinds the previous GR, reverting to the version 1.0 of the
social contract.
This amendment deletes everything but clause 1 of
proposal A.
The actual text of the GR is:
The Debian Project,
hereby resolves:
1. that the amendments to the Social Contract contained within
the General Resolution Editorial Amendments To The Social
Contract (2004 vote 003) be immediately rescinded.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
This makes it clear which previous proposal we are talking about on the
web page and gurantees exact resolution contents. Is this something
everyone agree?
Again, "editorial" changes are tough one ... :)

PS: I send original summary to everyone seconded prior to posting it to
avoid this kind of confusion. No complaint nor suggestion was there.
Due to the time constrain, this updated one is posted without prior
consultation. I merely performed request by Marco d'Itri while
supplimenting with rationale summary since Craig's original did not have
it.
