I personally didn't have the impression like we would have colliding voting systems for deciding about distro RFCs. We basically just ratified the process of getting to a proposal plus a central place where those need to be stored. To my understanding once a to be proposed RFC hits this mailinglist, we still follow the very same principles of consensus as we followed so far. If anyone wants to change how a proposal is decided, it would need to be another RFC that reaches consensus :) cheers, Levente
