It seems there is no disagreement with moving forward with the vote and the proposed resolution. Will go ahead and start a formal vote. Thanks every one!
Note: We have just received the apache account details for one of our latest committers, so I will change "Hao Hao <TO be fil...@apache.org>" to "Hao Hao <ha...@apache.org" in the resolution in the final vote thread.
