repository. Provided there are no objections from any TSC or CommComm members, | ||
such requests are approved automatically after 72 hours. If any objection is | ||
made, the request may be moved to a vote in each of the Technical Steering and | ||

of the repository is required to block creating the repository. Such requests | ||
