All,

Personally, given the tendency of some members of the SPI membership towards 
extreme uncompromising views and interminable argument, that the Concordet 
method of selecting for the "most acceptable" instead of the "most preferred" 
is a feature and not a bug.

I don't buy the "Debian-dominated" argument because despite DDs being 75% of 
our membership we currently have 3 non-DDs on the board.  It would also be 
trivial for any sufficiently motivated and organized project to get behind 
one candidate from their project to ensure them a place on the board.  And 
the Liaisons have significant non-voting influence if they choose to exercise 
it.

Overall, I don't see the problem here.
