Hi,

> 1. A tie (and if the voting period will be extended when a tie occurs)

Would not pass. For a release you need at least 3 +1 binding votes and more +1 
votes than -1 votes. [1]

> .2. Less than the required number of votes (+3 and how this will extend the 
> voting period)

The vote lasts until you have the required votes and a minimum amount of time 
has passed (usually 72 hours). [2]

Usually the release manager (i.e. the one who called the vote) cancels it.

> 4. Veto rule differences (or lack thereof) within the general@ voting vs 
> dev@<podling> voting

Releases can not be vetoed [3], a -1 is not a veto. 3 +1 are required and more 
+1s than -1s.

Thanks,
Justin
