<section><title>About Resolutions</title>
<p>
Every project on Jakarta has resolutions that they vote on.
Decisions are made, etc. But what happens once those decisions
are made? They are archived in the mail list archive never to
be read again (once its not in the top 10 or so posts). So they
get discussed again and again.
</p>
<p>
Rather than have that big waste of time, we have this section to
record important POI decisions. Once a decision is passed it
need only be linked to this page (either by creating a page for
it or by simply linking it to the archive messages). Wherever
possible a brief about how many votes for and against an maybe
some background should be posted.
</p>
<p>
This section is intended mainly to reduce big waste of time
discussions from taking away from whats important...developing
POI! :-D
