What about this.
- any developer may request an extension of one week
- the request is granted if L>=K developers second it
- but it is denied if M>=L developers oppose it
- if the DPL seconds or opposes the request, that counts as K votes
(this means that the DPL can get an extension alone if nobody opposes,
but can't force an extension if enough developers oppose)
- the extension must be requested at least 48 hours before the end of
the current discussion period, in order to give opposers enough time
to speak out
- that can be repeated any number of times, or no more than a fixed
number of times, say three
