Rough consensus is a term used in consensus decision-making to indicate the "sense of the group" concerning a particular matter under consideration. It has been defined as the "dominant view" of a group as determined by its chairperson. The term was first used by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) in describing its procedures for working groups [WG]. Rough consensus is consistent with other models of consensus, such as Quaker-based consensus.

  • Rough consensus is a term used in consensus decision-making to indicate the "sense of the group" concerning a particular matter under consideration. It has been defined as the "dominant view" of a group as determined by its chairperson. The term was first used by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) in describing its procedures for working groups [WG]. Rough consensus is consistent with other models of consensus, such as Quaker-based consensus. The means to establish rough consensus was described by the IETF (1998) as follows: Working groups make decisions through a "rough consensus" process. IETF consensus does not require that all participants agree although this is, of course, preferred. In general, the dominant view of the working group shall prevail. (However, it must be noted that "dominance" is not to be determined on the basis of volume or persistence, but rather a more general sense of agreement). Consensus can be determined by a show of hands, humming, or any other means on which the WG agrees (by rough consensus, of course). Note that 51% of the working group does not qualify as "rough consensus" and 99% is better than rough. It is up to the Chair to determine if rough consensus has been reached (IETF Working Group Guidelines and Procedures). The phrase is often extended into the saying "rough consensus and running code", to make it clear that the IETF is interested in practical, working systems that can be quickly implemented. There is some debate as to whether running code leads to rough consensus or vice versa.
  • Consenso aproximado es un término que se usa en la toma de decisiones por consenso para indicar el «sentimiento del grupo» sobre un asunto concreto bajo debate. Ha sido definido con la «visión dominante» de un grupo según la determine así su presidente o su coordinador luego de haber evaluado la situación. El término fue usado por primera vez por la IETF (IETF) al describir sus procedimientos para grupos de trabajo. El consenso aproximado es consistente con otras formas de toma de decisiones por consenso, como el consenso de los cuáqueros. Los medios para establecer el consenso aproximado fue descrito por la IETF (1998) como sigue: Los grupos de trabajo adoptan decisiones por medio de un proceso de «consenso aproximado». El consenso en la IETF no requiere que todos los participantes estén de acuerdo, aunque por supuesto esto es lo preferible. En general, deberá prevalecer la visión dominante del grupo de trabajo. (Sin embargo, se debe observar que el «predominio» no debe determinarse por el volumen o la insistencia, sino más bien por un sentimiento más general de acuerdo). El consenso se puede determinar a mano alzada, con sonidos de asentimiento, o cualquier otro método que acuerde el grupo de trabajo (por consenso aproximado, por supuesto). Obsérvese que el 51% del grupo de trabajo no cualifica como «consenso aproximado», y que 99% es más que aproximado. Es tarea del presidente determinar si se ha alcanzado un consenso aproximado (Directrices y procedimientos de los grupos de trabajo de la IETF).
  • Il consenso approssimativo è, nei sistemi di decisione basati sul consenso, l'"orientamento del gruppo" riguardo a un particolare aspetto preso in esame. È stato definito come "il punto di vista dominante" di un gruppo come determinato dal relativo coordinatore. Il termine in primo luogo è stato usato dall'Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) nella descrizione delle relative procedure per i gruppi di lavoro. Il consenso approssimativo è parte di altre forme di risoluzione di consenso, come per esempio il metodo del consenso dei quaccheri. I mezzi per stabilire il consenso approssimativo sono stati descritti dallo IETF (1998) come segue:
