Well, IANAL, but I think that this is not at all clear from how it is
expressed there. They give a link to majority approval (where 3 binding
votes are required), and then say:
"... except that the decision is officially determined solely by whether
at least three +1 votes were registered."
I understand this 'except' to explicitly refer to the non-requirement of
binding votes.
Anyway, it's not a big deal but maybe worth to clarify on the
legal-discuss list?

I think when that sections says 3 votes are required, it implies they
must be binding. I've heard it said in other places that you need 3 pmc
votes.

Why is this not enough? [1] only talks about three +1 votes and no
vetos, it doesn't mention binding votes for package releases.
(Just being curious, I think I did some of my releases without 3 binding
votes as well...)

Sorry for the late reply. maven-ear-plugin is postponed regarding the
j2ee module (re)integration task. Regarding javacc and rar:
Bindings: Arnaud and Lukas
Non-binding: Stéphane
I'll do those two ASAP.
Ah, that's not sufficient votes, but let me +1 to make it so.
Thanks,
Brett
