Just to make sure I understand what "majority" is I took my weblog entry  
and counted the various names. +1 are those in favor of the proposal, 0  
are those that didn't express any opinion and -1 are those against the  
proposal. Where "proposal" is the shorter name:

+1
   zcorpan
   Robert Sayre
   Aristotle *
   Henri
   (Anne van Kesteren)

0
   Arjan Eising
   Daniel Morrison
   Blaise
   Simon Jessey
   Daniel James
   Richard York
   Chaals
   Christian

-1
   minghong
   Arve
   Laurens Holst
   Jaap **
   Fatal
   Asbjørn Ulsberg

** Jaap later switched his mind when I switched to using get() and  
getAll() instead in  
http://annevankesteren.nl/2007/01/web-api-stuff#comment-5888 So he's now  
+1 I suppose. Given that we're not examining that blog entry I put him in  
-1.
