Debian has been working on some “constitutional maintenance” of late; a
general resolution (GR) on tweaks to the project’s decision-making processes passed at the end of January. As part of the
discussion surrounding those changes, the question of secret voting came
up; currently, Debian publicly lists every voter for a GR and their ranking of the
options. Another GR has been proposed to change that, but the discussion
has shown that the definition of “secret” is not exactly the same for
everyone. In addition, secret voting is not the only change being proposed.
