RE: [dsdp-pmc] Clarification on PMC CQ voting process (Was: Please Vote on CQ 2761, CQ 2762 AND CQ 2769)
|
Maybe 2 non-project PMC members is enough. That will put some additional
eyes on the submission. I also thinking a voting window would be good,
since not everyone can respond right away. How's this:
"CQ PMC Votes: The PMC member for the project containing the CQ will
request a vote on the PMC. The vote is held open for 7 business days.
Two additional PMC members must vote +1, and there can be no -1 votes.
After the vote is approved, the project's PMC member will approve the CQ
in ipzilla."
