Does that mean the Hadoop bylaws have to change?
This may be a little atypical but I don't see any harm. The Hadoop PMC is willing to respect the veto of any committer as binding. I'd worry more if we tried to reduce vetoes to a subset of the PMC than extend it to a superset. Do you think this is problematic? Doug
