What do the other members of the community think of the voting period? What
are the Apache rules or norms here?

As you can imagine, I'm trying to strike a balance: give people a
reasonable chance to vote, but keep the process moving. Especially
important while we're in incubation, when we have another 72 hour vote (the
incubator PMC) before we can release.

I propose the following. "The vote is open for the next N hours" in the
vote email means N elapsed hours, but the proposer of the vote should
increase N to, say, 96 hours if the vote overlaps a weekend. And we exhort
people to vote as early as possible so that we can find show-stoppers and
iterate fast.
