Indeed. If using the commit count is one of the option on the ballot,
then we must have access to the exact implementation to vote: your code
must be present on the ballot, or as an annex to the ballot. The
mailing-list archives are a reasonable place.

But not in the official tree, not before the vote.

But for the record, I think that using this code for the bootstrap is a
good idea, but using an automatic commit count for future evolutions is
a bad idea.
