HI, I'm also with Daniel on this. This has been discussed several times before, both in the incubator (to form the project guidelines) and on the member list. It has been confirmed multiple times that voting for PMC members is via consensus voting, including by a previous board. I’ll dig up the links to those conversations if needed. The majority voting for PMC members can bring up the issues of one group voting in people who they want to be PMC members without merit. While I like to hope that the board would step in and stop this, the board typically takes a hands-off approach. In practice, with consensus voting, people discuss the person first, and an agreement is reached. It is not just a matter of a particular group of PMC members having the most numbers. You rarely see a -1 vote when voting on a PMC member, but I can recall it has happened on a couple of occasions. Kind Regards, Justin -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
