Firstly, I realise that I have an obvious bias here.

But, speaking entirely personally: I would like to engage properly
with the discussion on the details of the maximum term limit.  But I
don't have the energy for that right now.  I need to limit the
proportion of my Debian effort that goes into politics, for my own
sanity if for no other reason.

So just to be entirely clear: you are completely entitled to push on
with this now, and I understand why you want to.  But you did ask for
my personal opinion, and my preference would be to wait.

Ian.
