It is, but we could do it our own way 8-) Later in that thread I agreed to Conor's suggestion to require 2/3 majority for this. > I personally preffer we define "consensus" as 2/3 - instead of > unanimity. No. I'd rather have both, consensus and 2/3 majority decisions and make clear which type of decision is used where. > Removing a PMC member or breaking a veto or changing the charter > should be done with a 2/3 vote, Removing a PMC member should be unanimous IMHO. Breaking a veto is a different thing. If the veto is valid, it cannot be broken, no matter which majority. If it is not valid, it is void. > and I would add a requirement on asking for board feedback.
