Ah! Light dawns!
So, Dave, as part of your proposal to "make things clearer" you feel
that it should have been mentioned that the synth-l list would drop
away if the vote passed?
How exactly did you expect the vote-takers to know this? Did the
owner notify them? Did *anyone* know?
Anyways, add this to the list -- all proposals *must* include every
possible effect of the change proposed. All of 'em. And if
anything happens that you didn't include as a possibility, you
gotta go back and redo the vote.
