Is my math off, or is 58.4% a majority?

  The first three words of the post are "W3C abandons consensus" con·sen·sus kənˈsensəs/ noun general agreement. No one said anything about a majority.

  58.4% is more than half, but the title says it can't really be considered a consensus. Lots of commitees try to avoid passing things by simple majority and instead refine and/or compromise ideas until they get more buy-in.
