I am only responding because the disagreement is public and everyone is
blessed to witness it :)
Forgive the way other Apache projects might use vetoing power, but I can't
see anything inappropriate about casting a -1 vote on a commit. The vote
isn't about intentions to solve or fix the problem, but the sentiment
towards behavior. Especially since I can't find anything in Apache rules
that make voting binding unless it's a release, I can't find Brett to be
out of line. Maybe there are some unwritten rules of etiquette here...
