1/ I had a delightful conversation with [[Robert Bristow-Johnson]] yesterday. Our email interview has resumed, which electowiki readers can find at [[User:RobLa/Burlington2009#Interview]]. I may set up a redirect in the main namespace to that interview.
 
Also, [https://www.reddit.com/r/EndFPTP/comments/gurath/reforming_fptp/fsknnlj/?context=3 a couple comments over on reddit about "ranked-choice" vs "instant-runoff"] (in [[EndFPTP]]) inspired me to reply:
:'' I generally call it IRV/RCV, just to acknowledge the fact that FairVote has successfully co-opted the "ranked choice" name, but also to clarify that I'm specifically referring to the single-winner STV variant known as "Instant runoff-voting" on Wikipedia. I've attempted to document the change in name over on electowiki: ''<code>https://electowiki.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting#Naming</code>
 
...which I posted after I updated [[Instant-runoff_voting#Naming]].
