Technically, it's not possible for the ARC to deny approval for a
fast-track. Denials require a written opinion, and fast-tracks (by
definition) don't have written opinions.
The options are:
- Timer expires and case is automatically approved.
- Someone asks for more time to discuss an issue, and the timer is
extended.
- The case is marked "waiting need spec" and the timer is stopped
because of some missing (and required) information.
- The case is derailed by a full member for full review.
I'd suggest convincing the project team, sponsor, or one of the
members that there's a serious problem here.
I would also suggest that questioning whether those folks are acting
in good faith (breaking promises) or whether Sun itself is committed
to open source or whether the participants in the discussion are
"serious" or "credible" is not a good way to convince others. I'm no
interpersonal relations expert, but I'd expect such things to result
in disagreement rather than consensus.
