As a TC member who is part of the disagreement, I believe your
participation is recused.
No, I do not think "TC members who commented on a patch lose their right
to vote" is a reasonable interpretation of that rule.
I refer to
"If the disagreement involves a member of the TC, that member should
recuse themselves from the decision"
at
https://ffmpeg.org/community.html#Announcement
You clearly are one of the parties to the disagreement, and "recuse
themselves from the decision" is self-explanatory.
Such a maximalist interpretation makes no sense - why should my opinion
become invalid because I commented on a patch, but not if I kept it to
myself and let someone else object to your patch?
a) I didn't make that rule, just pointed it out
b) what "maximalist" interpretation? - I think the current patch is
fine, you don't. That's a disagreement and you're involved in it, so the
rule tells you to not be a judge. This is not a complex body of law or
obscure legalese , just a trivial application of the rule composed in
school-level English.
c) your opinion hasn't been made invalid - it just can't be a weighted
vote in the TC decision. And it's not merely because you 'commented' -
see (b).

Gyan
