Robert Joseph Evans commented on HADOOP-8248:
---------------------------------------------
{quote}> Perhaps we should add a 3-day minimum voting period for branch merges
to trunk when that branch didn't follow the normal RTC guidelines?
Is it the case that it must be 7-day for any voting according to the "Voting
Timeframes" in the bylaws?{quote}
To answer your question the bylaws state.
{quote} Voting Timeframes
Votes are open for a period of 7 days to allow all active voters time to
consider the vote. *Votes relating to code changes are not subject to a strict
timetable but should be made as timely as possible.*{quote}
