Low Debian voter turnout hints towards dwindling developer's interest
Debian is looking for a new leader, but developers don't seem too interested in who's at the helm of the Linux distribution. At the time of writing only 269 of the project's 960 developers had voted.
The low turnout could hint that the the developer community behind the project is falling apart, suspects Debian Project secretary Manoj Srivastava. The project could be "coming apart at the seams" as a result of a heated discussion about adding support for AMD64 in upcoming versions of the distribution.
A more optimistic view would be that voters simply can't choose between all these fine candidates who have so eloquently made their points in their campaigns.
Yet something tells me that the first reason is more likely to be the cause.
