hello @solex as of wednesday dec. 23 UTC 00:00 , the vote tally pages for open BUIPS posted on the voting system are not resolving, see for example BUIP159:

@79b79aa8 The link changes with every vote due to how the voting system works.

Edit: Further info.
It is best to view the votes via the "Voting home" page: https://www.bitcoinunlimited.info/voting/
It has worked this way for 4 years. A new voting system is under development.

i would imagine that but i wanted to notify you that at the time i wrote you the links were systematically leading to 404 errors.
