[Github pull requests]
 * If a PR is related to an issue, adding `Closes #1234` in the PR description 
will automatically close the issue and helps keep the project clean
 * If a PR is posted for visibility and isn't necessarily ready for review or 
merging, be sure to convert the PR to a draft
 
+### Merging Pull Requests
+
+Most pull requests can be merged once a committer is satisfied with the code 
in the PR. Before merging all review comments should be addressed either by 
making changes or agreeing the request is out of scope for the PR. For larger 
changes or additions to public APIs committers will wait at least 24 hours 
before merging to ensure there is no additional feedback from members of the 
community. As in all ASF governed projects committers are expected to act in 
the best interest of the project. If a committer feels there might be a 
conflict of interest with a pull request they review, they are encouraged to 
ask for another committer to look at the pull request.

+A -1 vote on a PR (left as a comment with a reason attached) indicates a 
reviewer does not think the PR should be merged and that immediate changes by 
the PR author cannot address concerns. If the author and reviewer do not agree 
on the -1 vote, a discussion thread should be raised on the developer mailing 
list to come to a consensus on a path forward. One example where a -1 vote 
might be used is if a change should go through the [Iceberg improvement 
proposal](#apache-iceberg-improvement-proposals) process. Generally, -1 votes 
on PRs should be rare. Requesting changes on a PR indicates the reviewer 
believes the PR has merit but still needs issues addressed before merging. 
Reviewer in this context is anyone leaving comments on a PR, they can be a 
contributor, a committer or a PMC member.

Review Comment:
   A PR is not strictly a vote, so I don't think -1 makes sense. If there's no 
consensus on a PR after requesting change, than, either the author close the 
PR, or he starts a vote on the dev mailing list. This vote would be consider 
like a code modification change, meaning veto is allowed, fragment vote is 
allowed as well.
