Overall I would have been more concise and lay down the general principle rather than trying to prescribe this level of details (like the "Reinstatement" section for example), I believe that's also more in line with how we've been operating / documenting things in the past, but I don't really mind it either.

I hoped for something leaner, too. But this policy received some opposing views and multiple requests for clarification, which led to some bloat on the text.

I tried to only write things that I know we have been doing all along, avoiding creating new rules for anything, so hopefully, it will still convey the same meaning.

I'd also be happy if someone could simplify it later. I just wanted to get something out there so that Geoffrey can continue his proposal.

I'll wait for more people to give their approvals, to make sure the document reflect the community.

@lattner @echristo @reames what do you guys think?
