Yes, it does, but taking 72hrs and a bit more formalised.  I was
trying to suggest somewhere in between what we had before with no vote
on binaries to something a little more structured without going full
hog on another vote or changing how we're currently doing release
votes.  Most organisations / non-profits have this sense of delegated
responsibilities that require more than one person to be involved, and
I guess I was looking for something similar.

Still, from discussions here it looks like we're ending up with voting
in some format anyway.  And having all binaries somehow linked in to
the release vote where possible in future.  So, I guess my question is
moot.

True!  I guess my thought is that almost all valid technical reasons
to -1 the binaries specifically are things that make them
unreleasable.  But I guess better to rely on collective judgement
there.

Thanks and best wishes,
