The results of a three-way range voting question are likely not
informative about even the basic question of whether to keep names at
all. I think rather than waiting for another election (which to my
knowledge hasn't been considered at all) we should fix a time and have
the board just vote on concrete proposals.

I agree. You did your part and then watched that work just sit there.
I don't know what to do with it now aside from what I suggested above.
