I'm confused by this. Did something change? Bringing on a new TSC voting member was always a standard motion/vote within the TSC. This makes it sound like there's a different nominating process. Maybe I missed a change in the last year or so.

The same difference between lazy consensus (the motion is accepted as long as no one objects) and a formal vote (where all voting members are expected to participate or explicitly abstain)

Maybe its re-elected is not the right word, but its always a standard motion (lazy consensus)
