So with over 1100 votes cast, here's how things are breaking down: 53% think it a "terrible" idea (the negative vote), while only 21% deem it a "wonderful" development (the positive vote); 27% are neither positive nor negative, and await more information. That's overall, but broken down by region, the differences are striking:
American British Other

No opinion 17% 3% 7%
Negative 13% 24% 16%
