+1 to "it looks like the process is working. IMHO, the
comments by the abstainers are sufficient to explain why the election
was problematic, and I stand behind Eric's veto."
Comments like
this bother me, as it suggests that the abstention is unrelated to the
actual fitness of the individual and more as a political play. The
context of the other comments, however, I'm going to assume that this
isn't the case.
If I read between
the lines, I believe that the actual problem is that at least some
committers don't trust that new committers will restrict themselves to
repositories in their area of expertise and they feel a need to have
finer grained control over write access.
Other
than that, it looks like the process is working. IMHO, the comments by
the abstainers are sufficient to explain why the election was
problematic, and I stand behind Eric's veto.

Hi Wayne,
Do you
have more background on the Mircroprofile Committer Elections? It seems
that the community has some issues. There were many abstains from the
votes. Reading through the comments I was wondering whether those should
actually have been veto's.
Some of the comments sound really
concerning. I'm particularly concerned about the communication issues
that have been raised. However, I don't have enough data to make a clear
decision.
@PMC please take some time to read through the
comments.
