Indeed, this is pretty much what we are going to do about Gantt. Nobody has said don’t do it, all of the objections have been around how & when to do the split. We will revisit in Kilo (hopefully early in the cycle) and try again.
Note there is still the issue of Nova BP review process that I think needs to be tweaked but that is separate from the issue of how do we get Gantt going.

Especially given the ongoing conversations over Gantt it seems wrong that ultimately it was rejected due to silence. Maybe rejecting the BP was the right decision but the way the decision was made was just wrong.

Maybe it means no one has time, maybe no one has an opinion, maybe it got lost in the shuffle, maybe I'm being too obnoxious - who knows. A simple -1 with a one sentence explanation would helped a lot.
How is this:
-1, we already have too many approved blueprints in Juno and it sounds like there are still concerns about the Gantt split in general. Hopefully after trunk is open for Kilo we can revisit the Gantt idea. I'm thinking yet another ML thread outlining why and how to get there.
