This constitutes a veto, and it cannot be overruled nor overridden by anyone. Vetos stand until and unless withdrawn by their casters. To prevent vetos from being used capriciously, they must be accompanied by a technical justification showing why the change is bad (opens a security exposure, negatively affects performance, etc.). A veto without a justification is invalid and has no weight. >> Better use the fraction system for voting on the logging system: * +0: 'I don't feel strongly about it, but I'm okey with this.' * -0: 'I won't get in the way, but I'd rather we didn't do this.' * -0.5: 'I don't like this idea, but I can't find any rational justification for my feelings.' * ++1: 'Wow! I like this! Let's do it!' * -0.9: 'I really don't like this, but I'm not going to stand in the way if everyone else wants to go ahead with it.' * +0.9: 'This is a cool idea and i like it, but I don't have time/the skills necessary to help out.'
