We can't tie the ability to vote -1 on a release to volunteering to fix the issue that causes a -1. Presuming a release is valued by the community, the work will get done. At the same time, it is crappy for Josh to be expected to fix everything, especially if he doesn't want to fill the role of janitor. We all have plenty of other things to do, but so does he.
Thanks.
So let's deal with the matter of the vote at hand first. After that we can deal with fixing things, hopefully with Josh abstaining. (Josh I'd recommend un-assigning yourself from the issue if you'd prefer someone else take it up.)
I'll likely make time tonight to bash through as many of the issues as I can tonight. The assumption was that if 1.5.4 was going to happen "now", I would be the one who had to do it, hence my quick self-assign. Hopefully that was not interpreted as I'm doing it all (I think not since Christopher had asked me how he could help too).
I'm not sure why I have to abstain... but I think I've already said my peace on the matter. Eric has told me in confidence (that I'm apparently going to violate) that he has drafted a number of responses already, but hasn't sent them due to being frustrated.
At risk of suggesting that we vote on a vote.. what do you think needs to happen now?
