Lazy approval is the technical term for the voting style you’re describing. 
Lazy consensus is how committers and PMC members are voted on. Snippet:

* Lazy consensus requires 3 binding +1 votes and no binding vetoes.
* A lazy majority vote requires 3 binding +1 votes and more binding +1 votes 
that -1 votes.
* An action with lazy approval is implicitly allowed unless a -1 vote is 
received, at which time, depending on the type of action, either lazy majority 
or lazy consensus approval must be obtained.

Taken from https://logging.apache.org/guidelines.html 
<https://logging.apache.org/guidelines.html> which would be great to modify to 
add this type of vote to, but it says modifying the doc requires 2/3 majority 
of the PMC to approve.
