Voting on Changes in openstack/governance
-----------------------------------------
TC member should use their RollCall-Vote permissions on all
patches. Code-Review votes are ignored for the purposes of tallying
votes, regardless of the content of the patch.
In the course of evaluating alternatives for complex proposals, we
often ask one TC member to write several patches that might be
mutually exclusive so that the committee can compare them and select
one by voting on them independently. Because of this, we need to
ensure that it is clear which patch the author of the patches prefers,
and so we usually ask all TC members to cast a vote on all patches,
even those they write.
