This is a lot of votes for a set of pretty simple changes with minimal BC implications, and maybe
there's precedent for it but I don't like voting about what version to make particular
changes in. Adding a language feature like property hooks is a one-vote RFC but fixing sleep() to
take/return floats and work consistently cross-platform is somehow a six-vote ballot? Is there
anyone who has indicated in any way that they would vote against making all three changes because
one of the three is somehow unacceptable? What if #3 fails but not #1?
And I'd say leave it up to the release managers to decide what version it is appropriate for
the PR implementing an approved RFC go into. Micro-managing that by voting does not sit well with
me.
