I'm not sure how the "and a mutually agreed upon solution to the issue
raised" would work. I agree a -1 should be accompanied by a reason, but
I would imagine that it could take some time for a solution to be
determined and possibly longer to get mutual agreement on it. I don't
think it should be be the responsibility of the person who raises the
-1's to come up with a solution? For example, you test my change and
find that it breaks the server, should you really be expected to debug
it and come up with a solution before you can vote? I would have
thought that would be responsibility of the author of the change with
the help of the community. Suggesting that a solution needs to be
determined and agreed upon before one can raise the -1, that seems
overly restrictive to me, but maybe I'm misinterpreting your thinking.

Please provide your input for this proposal. I'd like to bring this
to the community for a vote this week.
I agree with Kevan's later comment in this thread that we should put a
summary of the three different options up for discussion and then for a
vote.
Regards,
John
