Well done to the winners. And well done to everyone who voted and also
helped bring about more votes.

As one can see, it was very close in the end for 2 groups.

Commiserations to the losers - it's a harsh contest when you get
nothing for getting so close. Fingers crossed there will be another
opportunity and that the community can take it.
