I agree with the point from Myrle and Ross, I dislike the idea of parallel
votes.
Especially in the early stages we had multiple RCs which failed in the PPMC
Vote process.
I would not like to have them on the general@ list, as that adds a lot of noise.

Myrle makes a good point. As a mentor (is been a long time though) I tried
to cast my vote after there were at least 3 views from the community. Once I
saw the ppmc catching issues I was missing, or I was simply ratifying their
view, it was time to graduate.
The IPMC should have nothing to do with it, other than as a backstop for
absent mentors.
Interested IPMC members can join the community like everyone else. They are
not some privileged group that gets special treatment.

The vote on the podling list is more (in my opinion) about giving the
members of the PPMC hands-on practice in catching issues before the safety
net of mentors/IPMC comes into play. This is one reason why some mentors
sometimes chose to wait a bit before voting on releases.
