I'm a bit confused about this. Excuse me while I tread carefully.
It
seems that the community vote is clearly a majority to accept the
patch.
If the end result of this vote is that we don't follow that vote
because
it's only the PMC vote that counts, doesn't that mean that
community
votes are irrelevant?
Anthony, I am upset that you seem to be wanting to cause trouble
again.
It was a question Noah.
Your characterization of my intent as being 'to cause trouble', and
furthermore 'again', is entirely erroneous.
No, it most certainly was not just a question.
Instead of asking how community votes would be factored into the
final result,
you constructed a hypothetical that frames the PMC as a
dictatorship, doing as
it pleases regardless of community feedback. You then use this
hypothetical to
draw the absurd conclusion that "community votes are irrelevant" and
then seek
an explicit refutation.
You have consistently used this style of framing. It seems that you
presume the
worst in people and processes instead of giving us the courteous
benefit of the
doubt. It has been consistently pointed out to you that this causes
offence and
unnecessary friction, and you have been politely asked to think
about other ways
of approaching constructive discussion.
