I am re-posting a summary the voting aspect from the push vs pull thread here.There are two voting mechanisms within MicroProfile:1) Consensus. We have always made decisions on the live hangout up until this point. It's basically our version of the steering committee meeting, but with a community/collaborative approach. MicroProfile markets the Live Hangout in general and these working group discussions frequently. We label "DECISION' in bold in the meeting minutes on key decisions made. This approach has been a contributing factor for the velocity that MicroProfile has been able to achieve.
2) Committers (meritocracy). The eclipse process for voting on committers is well established, and we've been using the EDP for voting on committers.To date (from day one) we have been able to make decisions based on consensus. However, there will be times when this is not an ideal approach - like when consensus cannot be achieved. If consensus cannot be achieved, then then the voting will have to fall back on committers.
There is no formal definition of consensus that I know of, but it has in practice meant unanimity to move forward with a decision, even though there may not be agreement that it is the right or best decision. This is has been the MicroProfile process since day one.

I need to repost this here again then.
As an MP committer, I'm definitely against taking major decisions during hangouts. At least unless it's possible to vote asynchronously before or after a hangout. If decisions like we're about to make now are taken as summarized above I'm really worried about the direction of MicroProfile and the way how it operates.
The community hangout isn't a PMC or steering committee or anything close to it. As a committer, I feel that my rights are ignored because I'm not able to join the hangouts regularly because the time doesn't suit me. However I watch most of the recordings and the mailing list, where I am also very active, and I can say I'm competent to cast my vote and I want to have a voice in major decicions. It has been always my issue but only now the things being discussed are game-changing and may affect whether MicroProfile will remain relevant to me or not.

Do we need to review current MP committer list to make sure there aren't large numbers of non active committers?We don't want to miss a quorum for an important vote because there were too many inactive committers.
