The vote has
concluded in the Debian project on a general resolution affecting the
way such resolutions are discussed in the future. The changes, as proposed
by Russ Allbery, have been adopted with the required three-to-one
supermajority, though the overall level of voting was low.
The new process is mostly
as described in this article from October
with a few changes. The end result may be to shorten the discussion period
for controversial issues and make the end of that period more predictable.
