Do people here still really think voting is a bad
thing and wiki is the
easiest way to collaborate?
No, and meh. But voting on a consensus driven model is bad. And a wiki is a
decent way to collaborate. It is starting to show its age (real time
collaboration as i.e. etherpad is far more awesome, but we're a decent bit
away from that). Q&A sites aren't a way to collaborate. They fill a
different niche.
I have repeatedly had proposals for employing some voting mechanism at
least on the back-stage, but no one was listening to me...
Cheers,

That's probably because voting is a bad way to create consensus.
