7 to drop 5 to keep
It seems the 'drop' votes have it here.
5 to keep, 7 to drop, 1 to be neutral - but implicitly a keep vote if we don't bundle MinGW with 4.1.0

I am sure we will get complaints later for those who never went to the forum before. Too bad we don't have users vote for things on install...
[ ] Install Core [ ] Install Docs [ ] Install Tests Votes: [ ] Drop Support for Watcom C next version? [ ] Don't bother setting EUDIR next version? [ ] Add a C style #ifdef style system to EUPHORIA in next version? [ ] Use reference values into a hidden sequence for map and friends? [Continue] [Cancel]
That'd require us to get users to do a new install or a re-install everytime we want to take a vote.
Also, I suspect a lot of users would be neutral and would just use the default setting - so in your example it'd be rigged to be in favor of keeping watcom.
At least one user seems to have registered on this forum just for this vote, BTW.
