Note, Karan is a committer :)  Also note, binding is an alias for PMC.

My personal preference over the years has been to put vote results in one big 
group and not divide people and contribution into categories.  Unsurprisingly, 
the divisions become manifest destiny and have a way of dividing communities 
rather than uniting them.

Apache's rules are simple: there has to be at least 3 PMC votes (aka binding) 
for a vote to pass and more positive votes than negative.  No single person, 
even a PMC member, can veto a release vote.  Everything else is up to the 
community.

We've typically operated that all votes count equally and any -1 is cause for 
pause and we will try to resolve if we can.

In fact I'd probably go further and say in a truly healthy community, the user 
votes count the most.
