Even if we can’t get 100% consensus (and of course we won’t be able to), a continuing dialog where everyone tries to hear everyone else’s concerns and we try to make sure everyone is comfortable with the direction forward should still be the _goal_. Ideally, we will have less voting and not more, because ideally proposals that we move forward with will have a wide base of support across the board. In my mind, the way to do that is to treat each new library proposal case-by-case and go in willing to hear all sides, rather than prejudging what people’s take may be, why they might have such a take, etc.
I very much agree, Gershom. John
