Hi all,

Since the voting window falls over the July 4th holiday weekend (July 3rd
is a holiday), I'm extending the vote by 72 hours. The vote is now open
until Wed, 08 Jul 2026 00:24:35 PDT and passes if a majority of +1 PMC
votes are cast, with a minimum of 3 +1 votes.

All votes already cast still count — no need to re-vote. Everything else in
the original RC5 vote email stands.

Hope everyone has a good long weekend.

Thanks,

Huaxin
