And because P10 is mine the above public statement involves me directly.
I know for sure that there were 6 (5+1 double) votes for my proposal 
coming from my country and in the same day.
I don't know about the other votes and I didn't in any manner asked for 
them.
If there are in discussion the 6 afore mentioned, I really don't get it 
how they can be considered an "unexpected high number" on about 40 votes 
and on a total of 400.
If on the contrary it's true that there is a high percentage of votes 
from Italy for P10, well I didn't know to have such a large base of fans 
(and I really doubt to have it).
But the point is such statement, as it is, puts in discussion my good 
faith, and as a sincere FLOSS advocate I do not accept it.
I hope to got the wrong message, but now I'm courious to know all the 
numbers and the votes/countries distribution...

Sorry for the troubles, applause to the contest winner, and goog luck at 
FOSDEM.
