AFAICT, the decision seemed to hit some ambivalence and then discussion
just fizzled out, and I assumed it was dead. That's part of the reason

As for how process-change decisions are made, truthfully, I'm not sure
there's any hard guideline. I'd say that in general we just try to reach
a consensus, and are usually pretty good at eventually getting there,
even if it's a bit circuitous at times.
