No a very tiny minority get back to voting again. The proposal that
spawned this thread only has 10 votes so far and thats a good while
after hitting the mailing list.
You really think people are going to change tags because 8 random
people on a wiki voted for another set of tags? When practically
nobody bothers to vote and the losing side can just ignore the result
what is the point of voting?
