The only reason I raise this is that 'active committers' can have binding
vetoes, and I can see that a voting deadlock could occur. I don't see any
way for the PMC to break a deadlock, other than remove committer rights,
which seem lousy brute force. That all said ... what the heck ... I really
don't want to get all lawyer-ish on this. Perhaps we just deal with things
if they ever occur.

In the case of a deadlock - the chair has "super human powers endorsed to him/her by the board" and as such can take the final decision (beside - deadlock conditions never seem to happen in reality).


0.02, etc.
