Yeah - I wish projects would just refer to
http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html and
http://www.apache.org/foundation/glossary.html and avoid duplicating
that information.

Many projects use it. See this Google search:
well that type of lazy majority is really a majority of binding votes
cast with a quorum which differs from majority of binding votes cast,
majority of votes cast and quorum (i.e. the needs 3x+1 to release...

Different projects however use different terms, as far as I can see Lazy
Majority

not try to rationalize geekdom’s love affair with
