Hello folks, In a discussion between myself, Joan, and Bob on IRC today, it became clear that there are some major errors that need fixing ASAP.
Here's my candidate doc that we are voting on: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=44302814 This vote uses majority approval model and expires in 72 hours. Please review and cast your vote. The page history is messy, but here is a list of the changes I made, in order of importance. The last half are a wrap-up of all the outstanding errata. - Dropped "majority approval" approval model, as this allowed blocking -1 votes on non-technical decisions. Confirmed with other major contributors to the bylaws that this did not match our intentions - Updated decision table to use "lazy majority" or "lazy 2/3 majority" instead of "majority approval" as necessary - Clarified that "veto" only applies to -1 votes using RTC - Change our most preferred method of decision making to "Lazy consensus or RTC" per Bob's feedback that we actually have two primary decision making models, one for code and one for everything else - Dropped a redundant sentence about the Chair not being a leader - Changed "RTC Approval & Vetos" to "RTC and Vetos" so anchors work - Fixed internal anchors, and added a few additional ones - Added example about using email TAGS - Tightened up wording about the PMC delegating responsibility - Minor fixes for wording and case Thank you, -- Noah Slater https://twitter.com/nslater
