I absolutely agree. Andrea already updated the vote result
accordingly. Maybe we can sort things like the reason for you -1 before
the vote.

Hmm... ^^; I did not notice this following discussion.
I suppose we are counting the votes, not the comments after the
votes. That is, whether I comment as "for the release blocker #NNNN" or
"for missing the Traditional Chinese version" or "bc'z I'm krazzzzzzzy"
is irrelevant to my vote. The interpretation of the comments belong to
the [DISCUSS] thread, not to this [VOTE] thread.
So please still count me as -1, although this does not affect the
result of the votes. I have to present my position as a member of our
local community.
Nevertheless, this release is great! It's really pity for me not
able to involve in the process of this release. Thanks to Juergen and
everybody on your hard work on this release.

do whatever you want, from my point of view imacat voted on something that wasn't part of the vote. It remains an invalid vote for me.

Enough misunderstandings here (I think that Jan was saying: Juergen
cannot decide by himself whether a -1 is valid...).
Anyway, let's update the tally to 24 "+1" votes (14 binding) and 1 "-1"
vote (imacat, binding) and move on.
As Juergen already wrote, we remain committed to make the traditional
Chinese version available at the earliest occasion, it is already at
100% but it simply came too late to build/include it. In the meantime,
it will be available as snapshot build.
Regards,
Andrea.

imacat's VOTE was not a Veto as you cannot veto a release. Since it was not a VETO situation there is no invalidation.
Please count her VOTE as (binding)
In a sense this is different from Rapheal's -1 which was agreed by acclamation once the flaw was obvious.

Hi
I know it does not change anything, but imacat did not withdraw her -1, so
it should be in the tally for the record. The vote is binding and should be
counted.
It is in principle no good, that a single person decides if a vote is valid
or not, it sort of invalidates the idea of voting.

the vote was not valid from my perspective because she voted on
something that was part of the vote. I haven't count it but of course it
would not change the result. And I believe imacat made it clear in a
later response.
