Better late than never, this patch will continue to put in place the
voting systems for FFmpeg discussed at VDD 2019 and FOSDEM 2020.
There is probably a better way to do this, but the aim is just to
'bootstrap' and kickstart the process and commitees.
^^^^^^^^^
Since it is only useful once, is there a point in having it in the tree?
Why would it only be useful once? I thought we'd use the same procedure
for every vote.
We did not yet agree on the procedure for all votes, AFAIK, we only
agreed on the procedure for the first vote. Having a procedure already
implemented and in the official Git source tree would be pretty
disloyal.
To add to this:
We could decide to use this every time, but that would have to be done
by a vote. But we can't vote on that with nothing, so hence we have this
to begin somewhere.
The community and technical committees will be decided by the
bootstrapped general assembly, along with formalising the voting
procedures and processes. Going forward from there it should be a pretty
simple case of just continuing the methods which were chosen.
