I guess it is the good time to discuss about the MetaModel bylaws =) Here is the link to how ASF Voting process: http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html
As indicated by the link [1], unless a vote is declared as lazy consensus dictate three +1 votes are required for a code-modification proposal to pass. And it is usually added to the JIRA to track down the vote process. We will need to create bylaws page in wiki or website to help new developers understand how we operate. If it is agreed upon, we could use review-then-commits with at least 1 vote to commit and if no response in 48 hours we could invoke lazy consensus to get the patch going - Henry [1] http://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html On Thu, Sep 5, 2013 at 12:29 AM, Kasper Sørensen <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi all, > > I wanted to clarify something now since we have seen a few times that > people submit patches directly to JIRA.
