Dear Tassia, and Martín, and Moray, Obviously, I'll support your plan. Thanks for taking the time to write in. Let me know how I can help.
You are proposing pretty much what I had in mind, except I think maybe the expectations are a bit too high. Taking a few days to gather ideas, 2-3 days to process and then have a summary or concrete suggestions will be next to impossible, at least if you are starting from scratch. And if you want to participate in DC14 a bit… I say this because I have *done* this work. I was involved with DC13 (and since DC7), I talked to a lot of people on all sides, I spent a large portion of my time at DC13 talking to people (and not always just single people, we were usually groups sitting in front of the bar), and then took several weeks to bring together all notes and ideas into my governance proposal. Maybe it /is/ useful to you. I am not trying to push it as my agenda, but I would hate to see all this work done for nothing. It would be nice if you — time permitting — didn't write it off without consideration. I am fairly sure it goes a long way of where we will be going anyway, and it's just a proposal, it's waiting for changes, improvements and parameters to be tuned! Always keep in mind is that we won't find a solution that pleases everyone, but this should not hold us back. The team will modify everything on the way, and later on. Independently of the proposal, I think that more important than concrete proposals to address the issues by the end of a week would be a plan (incl. deadlines) on how to proceed. We must ensure that this process does not get stalled or derailed into bikeshedding. It'll be necessary then to drive it and sometimes make decisions without consensus. Else I am afraid we might just get stuck again in a swamp.
