The -1 thing is mentioned here <https://logging.apache.org/guidelines.html>
regarding a -1 being a veto for anything consensus-related (generally
anything to do with adding or removing committers/PMCs). I suppose in that
context, a mailing list change probably falls under lazy majority, though
whatever it is we're doing at Commons for lazy votes isn't on that page.
