Making the Council's short circuit a little more flexible · Issue #852 · w3c/process · GitHub

In order to save time in certain cases, the Council has the ability to adopt a recommendation from the Team prior to being fully formed and to having a chance to debate the matter. This documented here: https://www.w3.org/2023/Process-20231103/#council-short-circuit

It requires unanimity for two reasons:

• if anybody disagrees with the Team's recommendation, or isn't sure, this is not necessarily disagreement with the rest of the Council, and it could be because others missed something. Discussion is needed to ensure that everyone has a chance to consider the arguments
• having many people back the proposed approach is important to give it the proper weight.

Thinking about this again, I think we could use something less drastic that unanimity, and still accomplish these goals. We could require:

• a high response rate (80%?)
• no negative response

The first criteria would continue to ensure this decision is back up by a large enough number of people. The second criteria continues to ensure that if any single person thinks we should talk about it, then we talk about it.

What this gains us is that we're not blocked if a couple of people are on vacation or otherwise non responsive.
