As we require a 3:1-majority and we have 7 people, so with two people
voting against the overruling, we can have at maximum 5 peoples voting
for overruling the developer, which means we already failed the
supermajority requirements.
This means the outcome is no longer unsure, and the bug can be closed.
Russ, Manoj, in case you would like another bug report at the policy
team, please feel free to reopen, clone and close this bug (or just
file a new one).
Cheers,
Andi
