One interesting point about consensus decision-making process is the need to define the starting point. The process assumes that there is a clear 'status quo', and that a consensus is required to change it. This may not always be the appropriate way to think about retiring a podling, but it's clear

I just read the last few months of discussion on the list. I think that retirement really isn't a bad idea. The single active developer (Eric Y) is the only one who voted against retirement. It really seems like this project would do better in a place like github. On Mon, Nov 26, 2012 at 12:37
