False
A majority of *contributors* have not voted, not even a majority of 
contributors who edited anything in the last year.
Offering a vote to those who paid a fee in pounds or euros to belong to a 
particular organisation (OSMF) and ignoring the far larger group who were not 
offered a vote but actually are the legal copyright holders does not make a 
valid poll.
