My said:
I'd like to make a request of you.
If it is not too much trouble would you please post the vote
results here again.
Here's a copy the post:
Below is a list of the PL2004 voting results (final with one exception).
Programs are listed in alphabetical order.
SiSoftware Sandra was mistakenly omitted from the main ballot - voting
for that program (on a special ballot) will close on Dec. 15. I'll post
a follow-up with the *final* final vote counts when when voting is
closed on that ballot.
FotoAlbum is now shareware. It has been removed from nominations for the PL.
-----------
The results of the acceptable-unacceptable ballots were:
40tude Dialog: yes - acceptable 28
40tude Dialog: no - unacceptable 13
Desktop Architect: yes - acceptable 14
Desktop Architect: no - unacceptable 7
ePrompter: yes - acceptable 16
ePrompter: no - unacceptable 10
KaZaA Lite: yes - acceptable 13
KaZaA Lite: no - unacceptable 29
Trillian: yes - acceptable 16
Trillian: no - unacceptable 10
Note: Objections to MyIE2 have been raised. This will be discussed in
the removals thread.
-----------
The program selections for PL2004 are shown in the category threads.
Some general commments:
The Pricelessware list is a list of the programs *favored* by
alt.comp.freeware participants - winners were determined primarily by
the vote count.
412 programs were on the ballot.
*All* programs with 12 or more votes were picked.
Programs with 8-11 votes were selected as needed to fill subcategories.
A few winners with 6-7 votes were picked when a special capability would
otherwise have been lost from the list.
IMO programs with fewer than 6 votes were not *favored* by enough people
to have earned a place on PL2004. None of the programs with fewer than 6
votes were selected.
Here is a tabulation of winners and losers by votes received:
12-87 votes won: 170 lost: 0 disqualified: 1
11 votes won: 14 lost: 10
10 votes won: 22 lost: 7
9 votes won: 18 lost: 11
8 votes won: 23 lost: 15
7 votes won: 7 lost: 23
6 votes won: 3 lost: 35
1-5 votes won: 0 lost: 52 not final: 1
total: won: 256
Some related programs were considered in pairs. One vote was counted for
each person who voted for one or both of the programs. The programs are:
25 Outlook-Quotefix
7 OE-Quotefix
25 combined vote
17 Super Gravity (related program)
14 Gravity (related program)
23 combined vote
18 TightVNC
9 VNC
20 combined vote
