Yes, I wasn't clear. I was saying that the license review process does 
not take a vote among participants on the license-review list, nor does 
anyone on the license-review list have any authority to direct the 
Board's vote (including me), nor does anyone have sway with the Board 
beyond their ability to make cogent argument for or against approval. I 
thought it was worth mentioning in this case because I had received 
feedback in the past that the role of the license-review list is 
confusing and the authoritarian way Bradley stated his disagreement.
