That "exception process" is a joke! It takes too long to get approval from 2
people, one in a medium-sized group and the other in a very large group, and
so the process is that you need to get 5 votes out of a group of only 9
people which only meets once a week instead? (Not to mention that they'll
probably say "-1, just get a proventester to test it".) Needless to say,
this ridiculous process has never ever been used.
Technically speaking, no update is completely blocked by the current
policy.
But practically speaking, it is.
