Subject: vote

Larry, I thought I sent these to you, so if it's a repeat, just
discard. 

Also, I grouped these issues loosely (but I didn't check them after
I grouped them, so some issues could be misplaced). I thought that
voting in alphabetic order was very painful and we didn't give enough
time to some issues just because of their position in the alphabet.

These votes don't represent the vote of DEC. Also, I gave more thought
to the no votes than to the yes ones.
