IMHO we don't really vote on the site. For all the COMPRESS releases
I've always said "this is not the site I'm going to publish when the
release is final" and it's been fine. We can publish the site
independently of releases and maybe don't do that often enough.
The site is part of the vote template as it provides access to a couple
of reports that may be interesting to people voting. A RAT report that
shows a violation is a reason to vote with -1. But that doesn't mean we
are voting on the site.

Agreed.
Also it's useful to have people review the site in case there are any
obvious mistakes in documentation.
