initial ballot results available

[Alex Shinn]

We've got six ballots in right now, so I've posted the
initial results at:

http://trac.sacrideo.us/wg/wiki/WG1BallotResults

Again, none of these items are finalized yet, this is just
to get an idea of where the group is leaning, and also to
test out the voting system. If you haven't voted yet,
please do so soon!

I added all aliases discussed, plus some others. The
initial ballot was made pretty hastily - I'll try to be more
precise in the future.

I'll make the scripts I used available later for third-party
review and confirmation.

FYI, you can write "#XXX" rather than "XXX" for the ticket numbers in
the headings, and then they become clickable.

Many of them have the options "srfi-<something>, r6rs, module" - what
does 'module' mean here? Use the SRFI or R6RS behaviour, in this module?

If one says "module" and means the SRFI behaviour, does that mean
"implementations may provide SRFI-XXX as a module", which is pretty much
implicit in the nature of the SRFIs, or that "implementations MUST
provide this SRFI"? If one votes for
"srfi-<something>" and NOT "module" does that mean the SRFI has to be
implemented and its bindings made available in the 'default namespace'?

In case you're wondering, the initial ballot was first
generated programmatically before being edited by hand.
"module" was a default option for everything, and I may not
have removed it from everywhere it didn't make sense.

For cases with multiple proposals I recommend using you're
judgment. ERROR is in the core in R6RS and most
implementations, whereas hash-tables are a module. If it's
not obvious we should use separate options such as

srfi-N, srfi-N-module, r6rs, r6rs-module

Alternately, if the feature is generally already implemented
as a module then you can request it be moved to the core
with

srfi-N-core or r6rs-core, etc.

Would you mind putting the number of ballots included in the results
somewhere at the top of that page? It would be great to know what
fraction of the working group's membership was included -- and what
fraction were participating in the voting process, too.

Thanks.

I'll do better than that and include how many voted on
each item (since some people abstained on individual
items).

Thank you very much!
