We need to document the process for how the council handles appeals of all sorts. Tom Wesley brought this up again in bug #216219 comment #17. This will also involve a review of our process to see whether there's anything we could improve about future appeals.
Tom, you're welcome to start a thread on the gentoo-council list if you would like. If not, I'm happy to take care of that. Please let us know.
Donnie, I must admit I was more interested in discovering what process was taken in the case of the three developers bug 216219 relates to. I have some initial thoughts on what I believe was wrong with the process. I can spend some time writing up that if you would find it useful in creating new documentation. Thanks, Tom.
I'm already working on this, so assigning to me.
Donnie- You still on this one at all?
Reassigning to me as I was supposed to take care of it for a while now.
This has been adequately documented in http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/council/#doc_chap3. This issue has been resolved.
