   RFC3: PSC Voting Procedures

Thank you for this revised version !

I agree with Madi on the way the delay is expressed.

I have two major remarks, though:

- We should define more clearly what should be subject to voting. At this stage we only have this in the PSC guidelines:

"The following issue(s) must have a vote called before a decision is reached:

    Granting source code repository write access for new developers
    Selection of a committee Chair
"

Maybe we need to amend this a bit in the light of the current votes being put onto this list ?

- "Proposals are written up and submitted on the mailing list for discussion. Any committee member may call a vote on any proposal, although it is normal practice for the proposer to call the vote."

I would propose that in order to avoid vote inflation, any proposal should be submitted by at least three members of the PSC, not just one. This should ensure a bit of discussion and peer review before submission, thus avoiding long debates on proposals that just are not ripe for vote, yet.
