Let's take a step back and start by assuming those involved have
better intentions than simply wanting to side-step a disagreement.

Based on the discussion of both patches, it looks like your concerns
about formatting were addressed in oslo.config and that you hadn't
updated your vote. Were your concerns not addressed? If not, this
looks like a misunderstanding and something that can be fixed without
the melodramatic act of removing you from glance-core.

As for modifying the labels glance-core can provide, -2 is worthwhile
to keep if and only if the cores that vote that way are also going to
keep track of the patch and continue to comment on the review. -2's
can't be a fire-and-forget item. Each of us likely needs a way to not
lose track of these (e.g., via review dashboard, periodic calendar
event, or whatever).
