Hi.
This proposal is identical to the one issued before christmas, but
based on a suggestion now formulated as a formal VOTE.
This change in the bylaws [2] requires 2/3 vote +1 of the PMC members.
VOTE runs until 19 January 2014.
Vote +1 if you agree to to following change of bylaws:
- Every ASF committer can ask for one or more labs. The lab creation
requires PMC lazy concensus, if no PMC sends a mail with -1 to
l...@apache.org within the lazy consensus period, the lab request is
accepted.
from
- Every ASF committer can ask for one or more labs. The creation of
the lab requires a PMC lazy consensus vote
(at least three +1 and no -1, 72 hours).
Reasoning:
The charter [1] and homepage [2] for labs says:
- Every ASF committer can ask for one or more labs. The creation of
the lab requires a PMC lazy consensus vote
(at least three +1 and no -1, 72 hours).
However the foundations glossary [3] defines lazy consensus today as:
*Lazy consensus*(Also called 'lazy approval'.) A decision-making policy
which assumes general consent if no responses are posted within a defined
period. For example, "I'm going to commit this by lazy consensus if no-one
objects within the next three days." Also see Consensus
Approval<http://www.apache.org/foundation/glossary.html#ConsensusApproval>,
Majority
Approval <http://www.apache.org/foundation/glossary.html#MajorityApproval>,
and the description of the voting
process <http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html>.
