Bruce,
This "vote" is meant to stimulate and finish up the discussion on the
first item of the proposed Glossary that you have yourself started.
There seem that there are two groups among out members, one is happy
with the narrower definition of DD (e.g. you at
http://www.world-wide-democracy.net/forum/read.php?23,444,531#msg-531),
the other group prefers the wider definition (DD requires complete
overhaul of the society; democracy and equality of opportunities in all
areas of social life, etc.)
Members can add alternative or more precise (in their view) definitions
of DD. In this way we can end up with the rankings of various
definition, and we may then concentrate on the most preferred one.
This is not a final vote, not a formal proposal or initiative, this is
an attempt to find what the common position of this groups could be.
This could then lead to a more formal proposal.
