I like the template, five working days seem OK to me. Author of the
RFC should also add a FAQ section and fill it with questions and
answers based on the discussion on the mailing list. In case that RFC
is changed based on the discussions, the voting should get another
five days.

Also what about the cases when later the dev finds out that he needs
to do things differently? Change the RFC and start voting again? Or
create a new RFC ...?

BTW. That new template on wiki looks cool :-)
