I guess we agree that the vote based clearly on misunderstanding should not stand in practice. Well, I agree with you all of it. What I would like to discuss about further is the fact that it's still being pointed out here as a violation of ASF policies - does it look clear to all of you? > Misunderstanding goes both ways, so I don't think it would be safe to simply ignore someone if you think they missed something. I am talking about the case that the vote is _clearly_ misunderstood - it was talking about a different thing what the proposal doesn't, and it blocked the RC, and people had to wait indefinitely just pinging. I assume the argument is that a justification clearly based on false is valid. > A veto without a justification is invalid and has no weight. which doesn't make sense to me. Maybe we should clarify it in the documentation if this looks violating the policy. If we're going to argue about the policy, it at least looks unclear to me if I read it literally from the documentation there - does it look clear to all of you? > PMC members have formally binding votes, but in general community members are encouraged to vote, even if their votes are only advisory. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
