Votetakers Comments:

This was a simple vote with only a couple of minor problems, which the
voters corrected with the exception of the two listed as invalid.

Voting was pretty steady and trailed off a couple of days before the
2nd CFV was posted but regained momentum after that with a steady one
or two votes per day.
