Who is that majority? Guillaume, Sam and you?

Not directly - you are (intentionally?) excluding all people who maybe
could have opposing opinions.

I think the whole forking-mess taught us that important decisions should
not be done on irc because they are not easy to follow (and in most
cases they are lost soon). You know - there are people who actually have
a real life and don't have time to monitor an irc-channel all day. 

This list was created for discussing important things. Only because we
now have "decided" on a name this list is not obsolete. Decisions made
outside this list are not official for the project(s?).

I consider your actions as pure "censoring".
