Sebb reopened LABS-512:
-----------------------
The page still contains the text:
{quote}
We expect that most votes will resolve themselves with lazy consensus (three +1
and no -1).
{quote}
This is *not* lazy consensus.
> Bylaws have incorrect description of lazy consensus

> Key: LABS-512
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LABS-512
> Project: Labs
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: http://labs.apache.org/bylaws.html
> Reporter: Sebb
>
> The page http://labs.apache.org/bylaws.html describes the process as:
> "lazy consensus vote (at least three +1 and no -1, 72 hours)"
> This conflates two types of votes:
> Lazy consensus / lazy approval
> and
> Consensus approval
> Both of these are consensus votes, i.e. they both fail if there is a single
> -1 vote.
> However, "lazy consensus" does not require any +1 votes at all, whereas
> "consensus approval" requires a minimum of three +1 votes.
> It's not currently clear whether the original intention was to use lazy
> approval or consensus approval.
> This JIRA is to remind the PMC to fix the documentation once the procedures
> are decided.
