Phew, finally found some time to update my voting list.

I have my votes mainly for people that are trying to build communities and quality content, or at the other end, removing the trash that can accumulate.

I guess many people have talked about the content supporters, so I would like to talk about the people that try and keep the ecosystem tidy. @anyx and @patrice have the annoying but essential job of taking out the trash from Steemit. It must be horrible to have to deal with the bottom of the pool, but without someone doing it, it would be much harder for genuine content to come to the surface. I really appreciate the effort they do in reducing the amount of trash there is in our beautiful ocean!

@themarkymark is another witness that I want to highlight. For quite some time, I was only using his bots, as he appeared to have an ethical take on a tricky situation (should upvote bots be part of this ecosystem). Well, the question is a bit moot, since they are part of our ecosystem, so the best thing you can do is to at least make the bot service decent quality and not trash and spam. I believe he has done this, via blacklists and spending his own time and effort to personally vet content.

@yabapmatt is another witness that I respect. Again, if you have this bot situation, at least it can be transparent for those of us that can't delve into the Steem chain so easily. With Steembottracker, he has given us the tools to use the bots in a transparent way. Also, other tools like delegation are made quite easy to use on his site.

I'm not going to mention any more, but I respect the witnesses that I have voted for, and I believe they do have the best interests of the ecosystem in their minds. I am looking forward to them leading us to the future of Steem!

EDIT. Whilst reading the comments, I added @gtg.
