Re: Vote on comparisons
Hossam,
I'll count it.
I am forwarding to the P1788 alias since our Policies and Procedures specify that voting is public.
Preliminary tally:
Voting on Motion M0013.04 Comparison Relations (Kulisch/Pryce) is CLOSED
Yes: 34; No: 5; Required for quorum: 37
Voting on Motion M0020.01 Comparing Comparisons (Lohez/Kreinovich) is CLOSED
Yes: 15; No: 19; Required for quorum: 37
These results may change as I check voters against an updated roster and double-check email messages against my tally
