Fair enough + seem reasonable to me.

You need 3 +1 votes first on the podlings dev list, and PPMC votes do count 
there, we wouldn't see a lot of podling releases otherwise. :-) Does that mean 
any +1 vote (say by a committer or user) on the dev list also counts if PPMC 
votes aren't actually considered binding? (I'd assume not but again it's not 
clear from the document).

Thanks,
Justin
