Regardless of the AGPL vs Apache debate, isn't it extremely poor practice to retroactively decide how votes are to be interpreted? The manner of weighting would have changed the voter turnout: e.g. if high-donaters know their votes would be weighted higher, then there may have been greater turnout among high donaters, or may have even been uproar by the low donaters.

The default choice and the one used is to simply tally the number of votes and whatever get a higher number wins. But I agree that if they had decided to use a non-default method, it really should have been said before the vote rather than after. How to count votes is a common theme in manipulating vote results.
