We ask that you please vote to approve this release:

BTW, this Veto thing is wrong. I've been meaning to mention it
since several podlings have used this template. It is not possible
to veto a release -- all releases are majority votes. +1 just means
yes and -1 means no.
Really?
I thought that would be considered a technical thing? If you know a
release is getting pushed out when it shouldn't because it's
premature that on technical grounds you could say that it doesn't
meet the requirements of a beta say? Or that it has know flaws and
shouldn't be released?
I honestly thought it was a technical type decision.
As long as 3 people within the PMC attest to its validity, the
release can go out. AFAIK, only a legal veto can block
a release. In most cases, of course, the community listens
and responds to any -1 votes and tries to address them,
if need be. Ignoring -1's is bad form. But with releases,
-1 aren't vetoes.
