I see. I think at least no developer (neither Sun or non-Sun) will have any problem to agree here. :-) The exact length of the timeout should be nailed by the ESC. 2 weeks seems to be enough IMHO. I hope that in cases where the person asked for a comment is helpful but isn't able to accomplish this in 2 weeks just because it is a lot of work to do nobody insists on a 2 week deadline. >> IMHO this could be a good reason for an ESC meeting. > > Indeed :-) it'd be good to talk; perhaps best to rubber-stamp (or > "recommend to the Community Council" (or whatever) the draft result ?
