I know you are going to hate me as I'll fill your mailboxes once again, but that's the way it is 8-)
The several discussions haven't been as wild as I had expected them, that makes live easier I guess. I'm going to repost all the [DISC] threads with a new subject containing [VOTE] and ask all committers to vote on these issues. The deadline for votes is Friday April 20th 0:00 GMT, that should give everybody enough time to speak up even though we are facing Easter holidays. If a veto has been challenged and discussion is still going on at the time the deadline expires, we extend the deadline for that particular item. Problems with that approach? Stefan ----- Short rundown on the voting rules for the uninitiated: Everybody on this list is encouraged to voice her/his opinion, but only votes by committers are binding. Each item getting at least three binding +1 votes and no binding veto by the time the deadline expires will be accepted. A binding veto is a -1 vote by a committer and must include an explanation. A veto can not be overruled, but anybody can try to convince the original voter to change her/his mind. Details can be found here <http://jakarta.apache.org/site/decisions.html>.
