Jody,

I also like +0/-0, but I think that these votes should be counted as the 
same.

As the PSC has grown (in terms of active members), was it our intent 
that we need more +1 votes to accept a GSIP to reach a majority? One 
consequence is that this GSIP was in effect rejected by the 0 votes of 
voting members who did not oppose the proposal, diluting the majority 
that the GSIP had achieved before Jody encouraged PSC members to vote 
(which was a good thing in itself). If these 0-voting PSC members had 
ignored the vote, the GSIP would have been accepted. This GSIP was 
rejected by diligent conformance to process.

We might consider changing the process success to define success by (for 
example) three +1 votes and no -1 votes, like the rules for GeoTools 
commit access (but with only PSC members voting).

Should change require support from a minimum number of PSC members, or 
should change as is now the case require active support from a (simple) 
majority of the PSC?

Kind regards,
Ben.
