+SLEP011: Governance Change
+==========================
+
+:Author: Guillaume Lemaitre
+:Status: Under review
+:Type: Standards Track
+:Created: 2020-01-30
+
+Abstract
+########
+
+This SLEP proposes a change in the decision making process. It proposes to not
+always call for a TC vote in case that no consensus is found during the vote of
+a SLEP. Instead, the matter goes to the TC if the proposer appeals to the TC.
+
+Motivation
+##########
+
+Currently, the decision making process included in the governance document
+includes the following statement:
+
+"[...] If no option can gather two thirds of the votes cast, the decision is
+escalated to the TC, which in turn will use consensus seeking with the fallback
+option of a simple majority vote if no consensus can be found within a month.
+[...]"
+
+It might not be necessary to call for a Technical Committee (TC) vote if the
+proposer want to review the SLEP and make a new proposal.
+
+Solution
+########
+
+"[...] If no option can gather two thirds of the votes cast, the decision is
+escalated to the TC **if the SLEP proposer would like the SLEP to be
+accepted**, which in turn will use consensus seeking with the fallback option
+of a simple majority vote if no consensus can be found within a month. [...]"
