But what is happening to the proposal if it hasn't yet gone to voting 3

I haven't noticed too many Conversations that have gone on for that period
before being voted on!

But maybe not "Draft" - "Inactive" perhaps?

It might be reasonable to move some of the older "proposed" ones to

So shouldn't they then be moved out of Proposal status?
