Hi, @Justin, Thank you for the explanation about `Who is permitted to vote, and which kind of vote is binding?`! I have not saw the wiki[1] you mentioned before. The table of `Decision Making` solved my question. :)
As both [1] and [2] mentioned that each project can define its own guidelines, i.e., in [1] has mentioned as follows: > This document defines the guidelines under which a project operates if it hasn't defined its own guidelines. in [2] has mentioned as follows: > Who is permitted to vote is, to some extent, a community-specific thing. So, I think we can have of IoTDB's guidelines in future, then we can bring up the discussion when the community continues to grow and needs to have its own characteristics, for example, define IoTDB Improvement Proposal, similar with "KIP" (Kafka), "SPIP" (Spark), "FLIP" (Flink), "AIP"(Airflow). :) Best, Jincheng [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/INCUBATOR/Default+Project+Guidelines Justin Mclean <jus...@classsoftware.com> 于2019年12月25日周三 上午8:12写道： > Hi, > > > - Who is permitted to vote, and which kind of vote is binding? > > Well technically no votes are actually binding if you are a podling, only > PMC votes are binding sat Apache projects so you could take that to mean > Incubator PMC votes.
