If that's the underlying problem, then *ask that question*. Holding a popular vote about what people think +1 means for a release vote isn't going to provide an answer to the underlying problem as you've just stated it. At least, not until the next release vote comes up, and what I take away from your question is that you'd like the answer well in advance of such a release vote. That, of course, makes sense, because getting patches applied would bring us closer to putting a candidate build together in the first place. So why not start a thread about who's planning / intending / feeling [morally] obligated / promising to support the product and help apply patches, and get an answer to you real question? -- Martin Cooper
