I still stand by that we should only let active contributors to PHP
vote, while I understand that not everyone votes and there are many
projects within the PHP.net umbrella. I do understand that many from
outside projects wants to contribute and not everyone is great at C or
internals or similar, but it is us that maintain PHP and if everyone
who have a wiki account votes on something they may not understand the
implication of, then it us that sits with it for years to maintain.
By doing that I think we wouldn't need to have a X%+1 for accepting an
RFC, if there are a tie, then there is obviously a dispute among us
core developers and it can be discussed. Kinda what we used to do with
voting on the ML, just by tracking them on the wiki interface.
