KEY FOR INFERRED ACTIONS
------------------------

Inferred actions capture the voting status of a candidate.  They may
be used by the Editor to determine whether or not a candidate is added
to CVE.  Where there is disagreement, the Editor must resolve the
issue and achieve consensus, or make the final decision if consensus
cannot be reached.

- ACCEPT = 3 non-MITRE votes to ACCEPT/MODIFY, and no REVIEWING or REJECT
- ACCEPT_ACK = 2 non-MITRE ACCEPT/MODIFY, and vendor acknowledgement
- MOREVOTES = needs more votes
- ACCEPT_REV = 3 non-MITRE ACCEPT's but is delayed due to a REVIEWING
- SMC_REJECT = REJECT by Steve Christey; likely to be rejected outright
- SMC_REVIEW = REVIEWING by Steve Christey; likely related to CD's
- REVIEWING = at least one member is REVIEWING
- REJECT = at least one member REJECTed
- REVOTE = members should review their vote on this candidate
