If people want to extend the voting period, I've no problem with
that. I guess the bigger
question is whether we ought to change the 72 hour guideline for
the foundation as a whole, or
make incuabator votes a clearly noted exception.
No. No vote at Apache should require more than 72 hours. Everyone does
not need to vote. We are a distributed organization that cannot afford
to be hamstrung just because a few people may happen to be busy or on
vacation at the time. The minimal quorum constraint was specifically
designed to prevent "volunteer variances" from effecting our ability
to make decisions.
