The only poll question I voted in was about the inactive bureaucrats, since the questions about the bar and the layout of the main page happened before I found this wiki.

As far as revoking anyone's bureaucrat status, my opinion is that if they've been inactive for whatever you end up agreeing upon as a long enough time to consider a bureaucrat inactive, they should at least have a chance to get back in the game, as it were. By that I mean, drop a message, ask them if there's some reason they're not as active. It is possible they had some real world thing happen that is taking up too much of their time to keep busy in here. (family issues, work things, etc) Maybe they can give some kind of time frame for when their outside issues may be resolved and they'll be able to get active in the group again.

Of course, if after a reasonable time, you get no respense, or they remain inactive, then yeah, they should be dropped back to the ranks of us regular members.
