Not me. We don't have absurd procedures, so we're already there. For example: community votes for a release, RM tags a release (and prepares
files), pmc rubber-stamps it with 'ACK' within 72 hours (a-la PMC composition change process), done.
PMCs are not about rubber-stamping anything. They are about project oversight and responsibility. And the big one. The main goal ASF exists for is fostering software
development communities. With second goal being software released in the process. And the legal part here is an *evil necessity*, it is *not* a goal.
Interesting perspective. But my reading of the first couple of sentences of this page suggests otherwise: http://www.apache.org/foundation/ -- Martin Cooper Vadim
