Hi, > I don’t think Erik was trying to be so precise with his wording.
I just want to make sure we're not trying to introduce consensus for releases via this new process. It really needs to be made clear that releases are by majority approval only (ie 3+1 more +1s than -1s) not consensus (3 +1s and a -1 is a veto). The wording as it is currently reads to me that a "blocker" is basically a veto and thus you need consensus before making a release candidate, that's against Apache policy and we can't have a release process that does that. Thanks, Justin
