Both sentences imply that the ESC have in praxis a blocking veto,
independent of the decision by a board, for both procedures.
In general, I think it is wise when (re-)starting an engineering
project to get input from the engineering community who are represented
in the ESC.
Of course, the board is not obliged to do so, and it also appoints the
ESC itself. If necessary it can stack it with yes-people.
However, I would really suggest that making engineering decisions
against the advice of the leaders of the teams that do the work is
something that should give very serious pause for thought &
consideration by a board.
Or something like this. I am not sure if it is good to vote on it
without clarification of this item in any case. What do you think?
Clearly the board as the ultimately authority has many avenues to
ensure its will is done: changing the policy, changing the ESC
composition, etc.
But as a general scheme of action for a peaceful and sensible approach
to the problem, I think the policy as proposed is fine.

Michael.
