The original idea behind voting was that people were supposed
to MAIL their votes to the person proposing the group.  Not
follow up, reply.

It's hard for a committee (or any one person) to decide whether
a certain group makes sense.  The question is whether there is
enough interest in it, and what the name should be.  A committee
could choose the name, but it can't tell how many people are
interested.  Hence the voting (which is really more of an opinion poll.)
