Due to an off list request, let me clarify my previous email. Apologies if this is overly detailed, but I'm presuming folks on user@ don't often deal with ASF mechanics.
For those on user@hbase, Andrew asked on a sub-thread that mistakenly went only to dev@hbase if those advocating for moderating Michael S's email would we would vote against a 3 month ban if Andrew called a vote. My response copied user@hbase back in and that's why you may have a gap in messages. In ASF terminology, votes are one of * <0 against or a veto depending on what kind of vote has been called, usually "-1" * 0 either neutral or too conflicted to state a for/against preference, usually has some concerns attached * >0 in favor, usually "+1" I precisely said "I would not vote -1" because I would not take a stance that might cause the vote to fail, but I would not vote in favor. I very likely would vote "-0 I think moderating his messages will suffice, but acknowledge the community does not want that."
