Stefano,
APACHE AVALON PMC VOTING PROCEDURES - PROPOSAL[..]The PMC Chair may disallow
a vote at his/her discretion, providing that justification is
provided.-1 (vote not veto).
Paul, no need to explicitly indicating this anymore. I think we got the point that we need the ability to say 'I don't like this'.
Forgive me for feeling nervous.
Note, however, that I personally tend to *not* consider a -1 unless a reason is specified.For the record I do not think the PMC Chair should be allowed to act in such an editorial fashion. I understand goverance models, and think a chair should be one of coordinator for this type of club/society. Dissallowing a vote from someone on the PMC is crap democracy. With or without justification. The benign dictator model (that backs our meritocracy/democracy design) sits a level higher than PMC Chair. To be honest though, for the item voted on, I'd have thought that was obvious. My problem is that I do not work in a job that affords me the opportunity to write to the Avalon mail list all day. My Agile leanings tell me to be brief where I can.
so, I much rather see you making an effort to tell me what you didn't like about that, instead of saying 'this is not a veto', which doesn't really help me understanding your reasoning behind this (I can guess, but that's might be further misunderstanding and friction created right there).
I'm sure you understand my point.
- Paul
