Re: [gnso-dow123] FINAL REVIEW: Preliminary Task Force Report on Whois Services

["Jordyn Buchanan" <jordyn.buchanan@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry to make this process slightly more confusing, but I had some problems
with the formatting of the voting section and wanted to fix it.  As I did
that, I came to the conclusion that the straw polls probably shouldn't be
given the same "weight" as the official vote on publishing the report, so
I've made the following changes:

1) Moved the results of the straw polls to footnotes in the sections
describing each of the policy recommendation that the poll applied to (these
footnotes just provide some additional detail into something that is already
reflected in the report:  who supports the various proposals).

2) Changed the formatting of the voting table to have one cell per vote.  On
my system, the Xs didn't line up with each name, which left the chart
looking slightly strange.  I think I've fixed that.

3) Added a statement in the voting section saying that we conducted the
straw polls and where to find the results, and that the call for
constituency statements will provide constituencies further opportunity to
clarify their policy position.

I'll reset the 24 hour timer as of now.  If we don't hear any objections,
we'll publish the version I'm sending out now.
