> The policy for podling releases states
> "Therefore, should a Podling decide it wishes to perform a release, the
> Podling SHALL hold a vote on the Podling's public -dev list. At least three
> +1 votes are required (see the Apache Voting Process page), and only the PPMC
> member votes are binding. If the majority of all votes is positive, then the
> Podling SHALL send a summary of that vote to the Incubator's general list and
> formally request the Incubator PMC approve such a release. Three +1 Incubator
> PMC votes are required. Below is an example showing how an incubating project
> managed this process:"
> This has led to confusion, and I'd like to propose that the text be changed
> to remove the reference to PPMC votes, as follows:
> "Therefore, should a Podling decide it wishes to perform a release, the
