A Consensus of Opinion on a particular issue exists when one entity named on 
the List of Voters makes a proposal describing the issue to all other 
entities named on the List of Voters, obtains unambiguous consent to that 
proposal from at least all but one of those entities, and then posts a public 
Notice of Consensus to the other members detailing the issue upon which 
Consensus of Opinion has been reached.
