Chris,

The obvious compromise is to ask them to report the vote result as it
happened, it seems to me, -1's and all. But where do you think that
they are reporting anything? There's nothing happening here at the
board level. There's no board resolution needed for a Hive committer
to type 'svn cp' on the hcatalog tree, nor for the Hive PMC to set up
some worrisome umbrellaesque structure of internal bylaws. When the
Hive PMC reports this after the fact, the board might response.

Having written all this, please feel free to add whatever version of
this you would like to the general remarks of the February report wiki
page, where I will leave it unscathed.
