A nit pick: the policy update proposal does not have the

If the issue raised is especially contentious, or is deemed to be
suitable for review by the full set of developers, then four or more
developers can call for a hold on the proposal, and move to send the
proposal to the larger developer body as a General Resolution. _Note:_
The constitution may have additional requirements for submitting a
General Resolution, for example, a minimum number of seconders, etc.
