I don't :)
I don't even deny it when our seeming majority would turn out to be a 
minority.

Please be careful with the words "the majority", we don't have a good 
tool yet to know what everybody wants.

That would mean: inform everybody in the Mageia community in a factual 
way about the different points of view and then let them vote 
anonymously. Too many users don't see the polls, I think it would be 
better to have them on www.mageia.org, instead of hidden in forum threads.

It would be good to make sure there isn't a different, "silent majority" 
here.

Of course not. Funny that you seem to think maât did that, I didn't see 
him force anyone to use the forum as it is.
