The chair is not delegated authority over the projects -- only
responsibility to manage the committee, and thus the only decisions
that a chair can go hog-wild on are the establishment of unusual
project bylaws or appointment and removal of committee members
(which requires an ACK by a board member).
Considering that:
1. One of the most "legal" things a PMC does is
to release software and -
2. That the PMC is task with overseeing that and -
3. The Chair is tasked with managing the PMC and -
4. The Chair is an officer of the foundation
I would think that *with very VERY VERY* good reason,
the Chair could, if absolutely required, veto a release,
but it would only be for legal reasons and not
technical ones.
