The biggest difference regarding "approval" is that we express "consensus" by having a vote with 2/3 majority (voting makes sense here because consensus by discussion rarely happens anyway). On their side, they usually don't have a voting phase like we do, the "consensus" is built rationally during the discussion phases. See the list of RFCs in final phase https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+label%3Afinal-comment-period, as an example. Marcio
