It's not a vote, it's a discussion. You guys--. |

As vapier indicates he's the whole reason this ever became a problem. He |
| 18 |
was the one who started arbitrarily ordering keywords around creating a |
| 19 |
keywords mess for people who did depend on order to perform tasks. I |
| 20 |
guess the lesson here is if you just do things 'your way' (wr/l)ong |
| 21 |
enough, people pick it up and it spreads. |

The point is that with his reordering implicit information was lost for |
| 24 |
no particular purpose. There was no added value in ordering keywords, |
| 25 |
there's was no reason whatsoever to make the ordering inconsistent |
| 26 |
within packages, it was an utterly pointless exercise in creating more |
| 27 |
traffic on the servers. |
