I think this is a very good idea ! However, the vote should be done
quite quickly (2 or 3 days) so that it doesn't slow the process. And I'm
not sure a vote shall by email is quick enough, or if sandalle want to
assume this extra task (or maybe Jeremy could assist ?). Alternatively
we could considering something like a poll on a private part of the
website ?
