Re: vote process for proposals?

Posted by Sijie Guo <si...@apache.org>.

Re: vote process for proposals?

Posted by Xi Liu <xi...@gmail.com>.
I think there is not a lot of activities on proposals. A 'lazy approval'
might be just good enough - a proposal with lazy approval  is implicitly
allowed/accepted unless a  -1 vote is received. That's probably the best
for now. what do you think?
