Generally, I tend to vote when I see a technical benefit or when I see
the vote as really important such as the DPL. I tend not to vote for
purely political things that I do not care about. Debian has become way
to political in the last years after losing its technical leadership
role.

In addition, I find English to be quite unsuitable for legal documents.
English legalese is almost impossible to read for me. Debian GRs, even
the technical ones, are almost always incomprehensible legalese after a
bunch of highly intelligent people have pondered on the wording for
weeks.

The one we just had was tl;dr to me. The people pushing it gave me zero
motivation to read it, I spent my spare time on my packages.

Greetings
Marc
