In the case of GSoC mentoring, one needed change is to add the search case http://s.apache.org/gsoc2016tasks or maybe a generic http://s.apache.org/gsoctasks. Then the Guide to being a mentor can be updated to match that and not continue to mention "gsoc2011". This requires adding a public

I think we should not confuse consensus with unanimity, because a -1 need not cure to a +1. The procedures are more nuanced than that, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consensus_decision-making, and there are many ways a cooperating participant can express their concern. I do notice that there
