That's a generous sentiment.  Either way the best outcome is that you stay and 
we all learn the lesson that disagreeing is ok and healthy.  How is the most 
important part.

Disagreement can be an incredibly productive and innovative thing if done 
right.  By definition, that means this project is sitting on some incredible 
innovative potential.

A concrete way I think we can measure ourselves is by the number of people who 
feel comfortable voting.  I would consider a vote of 20 people that included 3 
-1 votes to be significantly more healthy than a vote of 3 people and all +1s.

I want to be careful that we don't learn a false lesson as Apache does have 
technical vetos.  These are more meant for line-of-code level input vs 
community direction.

The intention of the two votes was to make the line a little more clear.

 - The first vote "Merge Pull Request 123 - MicroProfile JWT support" was 
intended to flush out line-of-code level technical issues with the PR: breaks 
the build; doesn't follow code style; introduces security issues.  It's 
ultimately a Review-than-Commit vote and a -1 should be viewed as a technical 
veto.

 - The second vote "Explore creating a reusable JWT Library" was intended to 
determine overall desire on what the next step should be.  No commit being 
reviewed, more of a community level discussion.  A -1 should not be viewed as a 
veto.
