+1

A question: what is the smallest unit that can claim concensus?
ASF project level. Consensus can include any number of "don't care votes", but should include three +1 votes.

Avalon does not need the consensus of Jakarta-Commons, we can
vote ourselves. At the same time, I don't want one person
creating a subproject of Avalon, declaring that he owns that
code and that his own opinion is equal to concensus.

In short, is there any way to decouple Phoenix from Avalon
in such a way so that *all* PMC members need not vote on
*every* change to Phoenix, yet keep Phoenix from sliding
away to a little isolated group of its own?
A point of order. No PMC member is *ever* required to vote on *any* specific change. If what you desire is a mechanism by which a specific PMC member is *excluded* from voting on a specific change, then you need to either propose a new top level project for Phoenix, or find another home for this code.

Separate code bases with separate communities should be separate projects. Independent of the size of the codebase, if the size of the community is only a few people, then it is not an ASF project. Such efforts can be pursued outside of the ASF, be pursued inside the Incubator, or be incorporated inside an existing community � as long as all participants in that larger community are treated as peers.
