Thanks Doug for moving this discussion out of the blogosphere and
into gerrit. That will be very helpful in driving the discussion
forward.

However, given the proximity of the TC elections, should these all
patches all be workflow -1'd as WIP to ensure nothing lands before
the incoming TC is ratified?

(I'm assuming here that the decision-making on these fairly radical
proposals should rest with the new post-election TC - is that a
correct assumption?)

Cheers,
Eoghan
