Less than 49% of those eligible to vote, voted for the change, I don't
see this as a majority, just an exercise in the manipulation of
statistics to preserve a predetermined outcome.

Not to mention that was only OSM-F members, we keep getting told it's
the contributors/communities that matters so much, but the community
hasn't been asked.
