Let's put this back in the realm of objectivity:

"In relation to Draft Policy No. 2011-7, Compliance Requirements, the
total number of people meeting in the meeting room and remote was 167.
 Those in favor to move forward were 20; those against were 34."

Yes there were more folks against the draft as presented than for it,
but 34 to 20 against is not what I would call overwhelming. In fact,
the 57 to 6 in favor of further work is _much_ more apt to be called
overwhelming.

Further:

"PPML discussion.  12 posts by 7 people; 0 in favor and 0 against.
It's mostly editing the version.
Earlier discussion.  22 posts by 10 people; 2 in favor and 2 against."

So on the PPML it was 2 to 2. Can anyone claim that is "overwhelming?"

As the primary shepherd of this draft policy, I can not ignore the
realities contained in the records that have been sited here. I can
not in good conscience turn away from the community on request of one
person (AC member or not). Thus, I continue to shepherd this policy
through the process. That process includes hearing from the broader
community. As such, I would love to hear specific feedback from other
members of the community. Repeated badgering by a lone voice will be
ignored - I will know it as badgering in part based on language used,
especially in subject lines.

Cheers,
~Chris
