Accepting means that - pmc members have had a chance to verify the basis of the contribution (through accompanying paperwork that is not generally available to all) - everyone gets a chance to express an opinion about whether the contribution is in keeping with the goals of the project We are interested in any reason why people think we should not accept this code. The vote is conducted in public so everyone gets a voice. We just ask that if you vote 'reject' you also tell us why. Once accepted the code can be committed into our SVN repository, but that is not the end of the discussion and evaluation. Collectively we may then decide that the contribution is new functionality that simply adds to the existing body of code, or that we should replace existing functionality with the incoming contribution, or that we maintain it as an alternative implementation, etc. Accepting here does not mean this contribution will be the one and only bytecode verifier going forward.
