I don't think there is anything wrong with checking with others around a fairly 
major change like this, which by the way I am +1 on, but switching the travis 
config and changing a 7 to an 8 in the pom.xml is technically a code change, 
and only really needs the votes accordingly for that.  If you want that vote to 
happen here and not on the JIRA for visibility that technically is not 
according to the bylaws but it follows the spirit so I personally am OK with 
it.  http://storm.apache.org/contribute/BYLAWS.html

Which on a side note, that whole discussion about changing which mailing lists 
get updated when, we might want to either change the bylaws or update some 
documentation so that votes specifically are forwarded to the dev list.  
Otherwise we start to run into a situation where an important vote for a code 
change is happening like this, and some people are not aware of it, because 
they are only watching the dev list. - Bobby
