Re: [eclipse-pmc] Platform Runtime modification requests

Which topic is a -1? I understand it for the publishing of the annotations. But what about the minor version increase for the context disposal?

Lars,

I already replied that we will discuss this in the next PMC call since it is a major version increase. I also already gave a potential -1 for Oxygen.

I doubt we have quorum in today's call due to absences.

Hi Dirk,

IIRC our PMC rule is that if you do not get a negativ reply within 7
days, the request gets automatically approved. I suggest to wait 1-2
days to give the other PMC members to react to this request and
afterwards continue with the change.

Best regards, Lars
