Since we don't have a single decision-maker, we should proceed through
consensus-building and careful evaluation of each approach. I see that
several senior hackers are already included in this thread, which is
excellent. Since you and I, who have been involved in these
discussions, agreed with this approach, I believe we can proceed with
this direction. If anyone proposes alternative solutions that we find
more compelling, we might have to change the approach.
