Thanks Greg.  The process for reviewing "exempt pre-reqs" is documented in the
link on comment6,  I would very roughly summarize it as follows:

1)  PMC has a transparent discussion and conclusion on PMC mailing list (please
see link for details regarding topics for consideration, in addition to any
other items the PMC and project may identify)
2)  PMC updates this CQ with a note that the discussion has happened, a link to
it, and a vote (+1, -1)
3)  EMO votes on this CQ 

I will reset the vote and mark this CQ in "awaiting PMC" state until we see an
update that the discussion has happened on the PMC mailing list.
