Rob,
you're mixing up partners and associates. There are
partner-level-decisions and associate-level-decisions. Partner-level must
be unanimous, while associate-level can be majority. Still, if an
associate-level decision touches the realm of the partner-level, partners
should be able to veto it. What code is to be used, is usually
associate-level, but if it includes possibly changing the license, it
becomes partner-level. Does this example convey a better picture?
Cheers,
