Right.  It's a general statement of support from a variety of leaders but I wouldn't consider it authoritative from any project. For GCC the decision would be made by the overseers and relayed to the overseers as an official statement for the GCC project. That would happen after a vote by the steering committee members based on already established voting procedures. > > >> I am not aware of any opposition from maintainers of libabigail or >> cygwin or any other active sourceware based project over moving >> either, but I haven't had any links to those projects, so I may be >> uninformed. > Indeed.

Also agreed.  And I fully support needing a statement from project leadership for each project wishing to move.    That is reasonable and I wish we'd been clearer about that. In simplest terms, overseers need  to be a neutral party here. In cases where overseers have leadership roles on particular projects, then they will have to wear multiple hats, but it's not really complicated.  Each project makes a decision, by whatever means project leadership has in place to make decisions. overseers then honors those requests to stay or go.  It's a pretty simple separation of responsibilities.  It need not be contentious in any way shape or form.
