So, it sounds like we have a process proposal for chandler.
To be clear, here's my understanding of how this could work for us:
(+) If you want to make a change that requires some coordination and
consensus, call a vote.
(+) You (the person who calls the vote) will be responsible for making
the change, unless you can get someone to volunteer to help you out.
(+) Specify a time frame for the vote, or wait 1 business day.
(+) Silence implies consent.
(+) If you are calling for a vote, change the subject line (add
[VOTE]) to clue people in.
(+) If you disagree with the proposal (-1), you are obligated to offer
an alternative or otherwise helpful suggestion.
For major design and architectural decisions, we'd still expect a spec
and more of a review process. We wouldn't use this mechanism to set
osaf priorities (0.6 feature priorities, for example).
So here I am calling for a vote. ;)
Cheers,
Katie

I think this is a general open source philosophy - if you whine about
it, you fix it.
If people start voting, then someone (such as Morgen, in this case)
volunteers to implement once the vote has concluded.

Votes usually run long enough for people in every timezone to
reply. In the Apache case, this can be as long as 72 hours,
although on important votes, people usually specify a date by which
voting will conclude.

(and chandler/util is fine with me)
