Here is the penultimate sentence in 
Dany's message:

"I have no trust anymore in this vote process 
and I am not going to support it by participating to 
the second round, and I will not participate to this 
non-trusted adcom (not because of candidates, but 
because the election process)."

That sounds like a withdrawal to me. 
Unfortunate in the extreme, becdause Dany has
contributed and could continue to contribute 
to the constituency. But rather unambiguous,
and we don't have time to sit around and wait.
