I did not say anything about it, and that was quite deliberate - I did not 
want to claim that people SHOULD keep their opinion secret - indeed, I 
wanted people to state what they were in favour of and why they were in 
favour of it, but I'd heard the concern expressed that if people knew what 
the opinions were halfway through, they could be tempted to try to "vote 
tactically" in order to influence the outcome.

In the event, we have enough people who have voiced their opinion without 
telling the list that this issue should not be a concern.

Of course, all positions will be listed in the results announced later 
today.
