The normal Survivor process is synchronous and therefore won't work well here. The variant is this: please vote with the list of options above ordered from the one you *hate most* (and therefore want to see voted off the island) to the one you hate least. The winner will be selected using a commonsensical ordering and tequila. Voting closes when I get to work Monday morning; since this is a vote (albeit informal) we don't need to know what the reasoning behind your preference is (though you may include it, if it's entertaining enough). > > My vote: api, ext, device, service. > > -- > Robin Berjon > robineko — hired gun, higher standards > http://robineko.com/ > > > > >
