Thomas, perhaps if you put your animosity to one side (please, for once?
I know you hate me, but let's try being CONSTRUCTIVE), and please
re-read my original email, you might understand what I was asking for.
If not, I'll try and make myself clearer.

I was NOT asking for detailed minutes.

What I was asking for was a brief summery of the various votes.

"statues were voted in as a block" The block was SAPx, n, y, and z. For
was "...", Against "..." and "..." abstained

the same with the other elections.

This, if nothing else, clarifies the positions of the parties, and helps
identify any mis-recorded votes, or faithless electors. As such, the
sooner this went out, the better, so that any issues that may arise can
be addressed as quickly as possible.

I'd have done it myself, except it's not clear from the video, or the
minutes sometimes who voted for what. And at least one vote (the court)
has no results listed at all (in the 'results' it just lists a copy of
the candidates). The lay auditors have no votes listed, and the
membership application votes are not clear.

Hence the questions.

I'm sorry if this seems like an unreasonable request to you, but it just
seemed like common sense and basic practice to me.

Andrew
