Personally I love the idea that anyone can propose a vote. But the issue comes in how that gets documented and closed. I've been trying to keep the archive of resolutions up-to-date. And I'm fine with that, but one thing that I haven't done is closed votes other folks have opened. I felt like that was overreach. As there is likely to be some discussion I have felt that it is possible the proposer would want to revoke and repropose based on that discussion and closing the vote was taking that option away. But, sometimes things get stuck.

Our FSA says that votes should generally be a week unless otherwise noted. So I think that we could just have that, unless otherwise noted, we assume it is exactly a week and I'm happy to clean up and close the vote. Or we could just add something to our standard template that is the date of closing. Or we could do nothing.

I don't know how we need to proceed on any decision there. But I wanted to bring up the issue and I wasn't sure if folks were aware of the assumptions I was working on.
