I will be doggedly optimistic here and say that this bodes well for increased community participation in future council elections.
I'll put this into perspective: since this was a survey rather than an election, ballots were issued to everyone with a maemo.org account - roughly 24,000 ballots - giving a 6% participation rate. The 298 votes were from over 2300 people eligible to vote in council elections, a participation rate close to 13%.

Cheers,
Dave.
