Discussion is definitely winding down. It's time to vote!
We've had one additional significant conflict reported. See below.
Thanks to all, in particular those who are new, for feedback and
comments on the dates.
Thanks to all for your patience! :)
I would like to encourage all who are of voting status to please
vote. The result may be very close, and yes, your vote may be the
one to determine the outcome!

Round 2 voting:
Here are the final nominations for our DLV 2009 date vote.
"Conflict point" scores have been updated.
This "conflict point" score can be thought of as an indication
of the amount of additional effort that will be required of
all of us if a particular timeframe is selected. Please consider
this when casting your votes.
All who are of voting status should receive the special ballot
mailing shortly. If you don't receive this within a reasonable
time, please scream loudly.
Please note that these are listed in chronological order and the
options do not correspond to the numbered options on the last
ballot.
A. Sunday, March 22 thru Friday March 27.
B. Monday, April 20 thru Saturday, April 25.
C. Sunday, April 26 thru Friday, May 1.
D. Monday, April 27 thru Saturday, May 2.
E. Monday, May 11 thru Saturday, May 16.
According to our standing rules, polls will remain open until no
votes are received for a 48 hour period. For this vote, ABSTAIN
is counted as a vote not cast, and is not used in determining a
majority.
Since we have 5 options, each having their fans and detractors,
it's very possible that we won't see a majority on this round.
If this should be the case, a run-off ballot containing the two
options with the most and second-most votes will be sent out
immediately.
