Marc and others about voting, The ASF is a meritocracy not a democracy. Voting privileges are earned by demonstrating merit on a project. That is the project management committee aka the PMC. Discussion with the PMC on this change started in early April with a vote in early May by the PMC.
To Marc, your Ad hominem attacks are not needed and I will ignore messages that use them. To you and others spouting off, be reminded that this is a publicly archived mailing list and you will be on the wrong side of history. Consider that when you post.
