Er, just a vote -- there is no veto for this type of decision.
Actually, althought it has never been necessary to address so far, I do recall discussion of a -1 veto option graduation. Yes, it is a policy decision, but it effects importing code under the auspices of the Foundation, and it isn't unreasonable to have a higher bar.
There are some graduation criteria, such as licensing or IP issues, that are clearly objective and for those a veto option would be appropriate. I would trust, though, that we would never obtain concensus should any such issue exist.
Other criteria, for example the diversity of the community, are more subjective. Simple consensus seems more appropriate.
Citing the recent Derby discussion, Roy voted against with clear issues that have been resolved; however, the issue with community is far muddier.
