Musachy,

Policy is that the user list is only notified for releases. For a
release to occur, it needs at least 3 +1 binding votes.

Maybe one option is to introduce a graded release promotion. First,
eliminate the possibility to vote GA in the first round; it becomes
either Beta or the version is burned. Second, once a week or two pass
by after a successful beta vote, you can then call a second vote to
bump from Beta to GA.

NB: MySQL does something very similar.
