Consensus Decision Making

•  Consensus = “general agreement” taking into consideration comments on the mailing list and at the meeting.

•  Show of hands is a way of “broadly gauging opinion”

•  Comments via Remote Participation are welcome

•  Example definitions from Tao of IETF: –  a very large majority of those who care must agree –  strongly held objections must be debated until most people are

satisfied that these objections are wrong

Remember

•  Minor Objections –  some problems may occur for some members of the group

•  Major Objections –  major problems will occur for parts of the community

•  Participants should “work together” to resolve
