So, even the votes are imperfect. First, they're not voting
specifically on the assertion that the Council is disconnected from
reality. Second, you can't really infer anything from a vote that
isn't cast.
However, even so I suspect that 37% of developers is a far larger
number of opinions than the number of developers who have made
comments on the lists.
Finally, given that few of Gentoo's projects actually operate as
cohesive teams, I'm not really sure what it even means for a Gentoo
developer to be connected or disconnected. Most of us just do our
thing.
