It’s the opposite case that xep1 is concerned with. A Council member might decide not to give feedback on standards@, knowing that they can give such feedback when voting, and such when they’re not on Council their not-yet-voiced comments might fail to be heard. I suppose the compromise here would be for the outgoing Council to confirm they’ve no more feedback, and then I’ll rescind my -1 on that basis. /K > > Standing on procedure like this is one of the reasons we lose things > around the time of the council transition and why things end up stuck in > a loop and never moving forward.
