From more than 319 comments, representing 150 individual contributors and 63 affiliates, we assessed 6 major themes in feedback:
The benchmark is completely twisted to make opposition impossible:
* Support and Opposition are measured by different metrics: Support is measured by "reviewing affiliates support" and opposition by "informed user opposition". * Support percentage is set at 38% for reviewing affiliates (24 affiliates?), it would be roughly 19% for reached affiliates and 15% of total affiliates. * Opposition percentage is set at 0.6% for informed (reached) users, it would be 38% of reviewing users.
On the other hand:
* Opposition from reviewing affiliates is 9.5%. * Support from reviewing users is 13% (vs 38% oppose) * Support from reached users is around 0.2% (vs 0.6% oppose).
The support and opposition metrics seem to be cherry-picked to force a strong support result, but that is not the case when comparable metrics are used.
I agree that a proper RFC should be created, possibly at the initiative of the community, to get a clearer result.
Best,
