Hi all guys, Since 72 hours passed I'm declaring this vote as closed and NOT passed with only 2 positive votes from PMCs:
* Matt Benson * Simone Tripodi (implicit) no other votes were cast. We will continue working towards a new RC to submit. Thanks to all for your support and patience! Have a nice weekend, all the best!
