Minor suggestion: the text does not say whether this is a simple
majority or something else.  It is probably worth a little thought,
and making it explicit.

I realize this isn't the formal approval of the text, but it might
actually be a nice thing for Council to discuss.

To toss something out, I'd probably suggest at least a 60% majority of
those voting, simply because this is a fairly foundational document
and matters with only a slim majority probably should lead to more
deliberation.

I like the change to it being a recommendation, but I will note that
this is actually a pretty decent way to assess project activity.  If a
project doesn't really have these kinds of discussions then it doesn't
seem very project-like.  Of course this isn't the only way to measure
activity, but it is one of the things that are public-facing since
this info is supposed to be on the wiki.
