Speaking of which, before deciding anything (including seconding it or not) about this proposal, I'd like to know what impact a positive outcome of this GR would have on the work load of teams whose efforts we badly need to put the Jessie release in shape. Specifically: have you, or anyone else involved in this GR, asked the GNOME team and the release team, whether a positive outcome of this GR is going to disrupt their work (plans) or not? [ Those teams are just the first two I could think of. Please speak up if you are aware of teams that might be heavily impacted, one way or another, by the outcome of this GR. ] I've sympathy for the motives behind this GR, but discovering that those teams might have their Jessie plans disrupted---on a very short notice---by this GR will make me think twice or thrice before helping in making it happen.
