Hi Suneel, Markus, I understand your concern. However, in the voting thread for RC2 we had a discussion to close the RC3 voting as soon as we received the necessary number of votes. Hence I specified a potentially smaller voting window in the RC3 VOTE email as follows - "Voting will start now (Thursday, August 24, 2017 9:50 PM UTC) and close Monday, August 28, 2017 9:50 PM UTC or when we have received 3 +1 votes."
Please let me know if this is not alright and I should cancel the general vote and reopen this vote.
