And yet this poll seems to have significantly more support across the board than any other proposal that has been put forward. If there's another way of taking it forward that would have sufficient support, let's hear it.

Two more problems:
- This just barely made it on the watchlist notice, with a whopping one day
for further participation.
- None of the details on how the trial will actually work have been
determined. Questions and opposition along these lines have been primarily met with "We'll work that out when the poll closes."
Nice.

First sensible response I've seen to this. I thought I was on my own as being a determined BLP warrior (or worrier) who opposed this ridiculous thing.
It seems to be a victory of "something must be done - and this is something" over common sense.
This does nothing at all for BLP subjects, screws flagged revisions, and introduces a nightmare, all at once.
Nice indeed.
