Considering the massive changes that are likely to be required for the module based on the review, I think that it's clearly going to require another review phase prior to a vote, and it may be that we'll want a shorter review period for the second review, but I would point out that it's not necessarily a good idea to try and push a vote too quickly if enough changes have to be made. It's better IMHO to have multiple review periods as the issues with the module are sorted out rather than forcing a vote before the module is really ready for it. But we'll obviously have to see where the module stands when it's reviewed next before we decide whether it's ready for voting or not. - Jonathan M Davis
