I wasn’t answering based on the rules. My answer is based on practice. AFAIK, everyone with a php.net account also has access to the wiki (you log into the wiki using your php.net account), and therefore, also has the ability to vote on RFCs. Maybe there are some who have access to the wiki without a php.net account, and maybe there are some who can access the wiki who can’t vote. Whomever has admin access on the wiki can provide more information. -Ben
