Why is this an automatic vote "for"?
I've pariticipated in organizations and in most a motion is completely
different then voting for or against, in fact I've seen number of cases
where whoever brought the motion (often a chair) abstained.
If that were the case in this instance I would have openly said so.
Now, I'd let it be this time since just now you made it clear that you
would have voted for it. But for the future I'd like to see that no
vote be considered "automatic" - this is why they call it voting :)
I guess I was there and you weren't? ;-)
