 * Koon’s “/Alternative/” proposal
 * G2boojum’s “/Oldschool/-small” proposal with a small council (7-13 members)
 * G2boojum’s “/Oldschool/-large” proposal with a large council (such as 0.1*Ndevs + (Ndevs+1)%2 members)
 * Ciaranm’s “/Oldschool/-small-with-slacker-boot” with a small council (7-13 members)
 * Ciaranm’s “/Oldschool/-large-with-slacker-boot” with a large council (such as 0.1*Ndevs + (Ndevs+1)%2 members)
 * Keep the current system (“/Keep-current/”)
 * Reopen nominations (“Reopen-nominations”)
