In GCC, people complain, and the global maintainers step in.
In GCC, when there is a major decision and a disagreement, I believe
the GCC steering committee members are the ones that vote. They
recently had a vote about a major design decision.
The steering committee is the group appointed to maintain GCC. It has
the overall responsibility to oversee the development of the package.
(They do not all have to do substantial work on GCC development.)
Practically speaking, the committee can and usually does let other
contributors make decisions, but it must retain the authority to
overrule them.

and down votes when consensus can not be achieved.
We already have such a committee. However, someone reported that some
of the committee members are no longer active. I think I should see
which of them still want to be on the committee.
