Adam, If a vote is called out, how do we decide if it passes or not. Will that be the same of voting for a release (i.e., PMC member can veto it)?
I would imagine that some PMC members might want to express some negative feedbacks on this, but certainly do not want to veto it. How do we deal with this situation? As already pointed out in the thread, this name change requires large amount of work on changing the internal config files, monitoring stack and a complicated rolling out procedure. Because of that, I would like to propose that we also *count votes by organization* and take that into account. We probably don't want to pass a vote if a majority of the organizations do not want it, right? We'll decide each organization's +1/-1 by looking at votes from their employees (e.g., by majority). If one does not have an organization associated with, his/her vote will be put into a separate pool. If an organization wants to stay anonymous, just use a label (but make sure to use the same label if there are multiple votes from the same organization). How does that sound? - Jie On Mon, Jun 1, 2015 at 2:18 PM, Adam Bordelon <a...@mesosphere.io> wrote: > There has been much discussion about finding a less offensive name than > "Slave", and many of these thoughts have been captured in > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1478 > > I would like to open up the discussion on this topic for one week, and if > we cannot arrive at a lazy consensus, I will draft a proposal from the > discussion and call for a VOTE. > Here are the questions I would like us to answer: > 1.
