Noel I'm also with you - I don't think that - unless the ODE community have some concerns - there is any need for any votes. I simply started a vote on general because I thought it might be quicker than arguing about whether a vote was necessary!
No concerns whatsoever, we're the ones who've been asking for help and guidance so we're pretty happy with the outcome. I guess in some other, maybe inversed situations (the IPMC pro-actively proposes a new mentor for a podling for example), a vote could make sense. Cheers, Matthieu AFAIC we can get on and bootstrap the PPMC now.
