Oh, I didn't mean it in any sort of offensive way -- it's quite common for 
groups not to have a formal vote for this kind of thing. For example for 
CSS 2.1 the decision to go to last call was something along the lines of a 
unanimous spontaneous cheer at the end of a face to face, not a vote.

I'm not subscribed to the SVG member confidential mailing list.
