OIPs should be addressed within one week of being submitted, votes take place at the subsequent online meeting (Slack / email / other TBD).
Each PSC member may vote one of the following in support of the proposal:
- +1 : For
- -1 : Against
- +0: Mildly for, but mostly indifferent
- -0: Mildly against, but mostly indifferent
A -1 vote must be accompanied with a detailed reason of being against.
A vote is successful if there is a majority of positive votes.
A vote is unanimous, if all casted votes are either:
- against it -1, or
- votes for it +1.
- Each member who votes -1 may supply an alternative with which the original author can use to rework the proposal in order to satisfy that PSC member.
- If at least one -1 voting PSC member supplies some alternative criteria, the original author must rework the proposal and resubmit, and the voting process starts again from scratch.
- If no -1 voters are able to supply alternative criteria, the proposal is accepted.
- In the event of an unsuccessful vote, the author may rework and submit. A proposal may not be resubmitted after being rejected three times.
Note that a majority of positive votes does not need to be a majority of the full PSC, just a majority of the ‘active’ PSC - defined by those present at the meeting or responding within 4 days on email.
PSC members need not sound in on every single motion, but are expected to be active.
Voting results should be openly presented to the Community.
