What? dudes, your memory is getting worse with the time :)

I can easily remember the discussion about the -show option... I implemented
it even when I myself & Paul were against the feature (I remember clearly
Paul commenting that this feature was... *ugly*... *it looks like perl*...
and some other stuff), and the only "+1" come from Sam. We should prevent
these errors! :)

I can remember too the discussion about making the LaTeX exporter produce
more accurate output or a simpler stuff. If I remember correctly Sam and
somebody else gave "+1", and myself and somebody else gave "-1" (and anyway
I implemented it!! god, I'm a moron!)

And what about the bool discussion? (this one is the third or fourth
incarnation of this discussion). I can clearly remember how last time Mike
showed that all the supported compilers supported bool (a few months ago)
and nobody expressed a strong virtual "-1", and everybody seemed to express
virtuals "+1" (or at least "+0") but anyway the guidelines were not touched!
What a shame!!

And what about the STL discussion?

Do you want that I continue??? ;-)

I vote +1 to accept the Apache vote style! (god, that's getting
recursive...)

Damn, I said that before, Paul, you're a loser ;-)

P.S.: And, in addition, the Apache vote system is cool :)
