Well, the ASF guidelines in general seem to be: the PMC controls the
policies of their TLP.  So IMO, we should just come up with something
that works for us.

(a) is 50% of the current PMC
(b) is 2/3 of the current PMC
(c) is 5 people of the 6 in the PMC

So given our current numbers, I think (a) or (b) is appropriate.
Moving forward, if the PMC numbers grow, I agree that (a) is too small.
I think requiring 1/2 to 2/3 is a good number.


BTW, I haven't had the time to read the docs and such regarding the
specific details, but I'm +1 on the idea of the subproject.
