I think by ASF policy, we need a vote. That said, right now a +1 vote means:

 a) I think we should have a pre-release now.
 b) The tarballs presented are well constructed, work well, etc and
I've tested them.

I think if we agree that a +1 vote for pre-release only implies a)
then we won't have the issue of not getting votes. I haven't had time
to test the tarballs, so I haven't voted, but I'm +1 on the idea of a
pre-release. (i.e. +1 to part a) above).
