We would like to know if it is OK to either - 1. shorten the release VOTE for change to one non-code file 2. run 72 hour vote in parallel on the dev list as well as on general@
I've never seen a point to 2) to running serial votes. You need only 3 +1's (more +1's than -1's)... usually three mentors are enough to finish amoung the dev@ list, but announcing the vote (and its conclusion) on the general@ list seems entirely appropriate. If folks at general@ would like to have more input on the release, the ppmc dev@ list is really the best place to get involved. It is important to always allow 72 full hours. The reason is simple, we have participants in nearly every timezone, people who are here only on their own time, and more people who are here almost exclusively on work hours. 72 hours is long enough to accommodate them all, if they care to participate. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
