If we’re wrong on the second point, then I think the entire discussion of carrying votes became moot, and we’ve spent an awful lot of time and energy on a non-issue.
We can simply state that to vote on a new RC one either needs to recheck all artifacts of the RC or be confident that their original vote still applies. (Probably with some guidelines that doing so should be done with caution and generally only when non-code files have been changed.) Harbs
