Actually, I think the TC making a decision when the project is unable to come to consensus is often a great outcome. The TC is one of our decision making options. During my DPL term, the TC did not appear to have the credibility to be a popular option for me to go to when my consensus-making attempts got part of the way. However, if the project is functioning well, I think that the TC is a great option short of a GR. I think that has worked well with usrmerge recently. I DO NOT think this bug is the place for the TC to recommend something like the maintainer view of git source packages should be a patches-unapplied format. I think it would be great if the TC would take that on in a separate bug. If you would like me to pose such a question to the TC I'd be happy to do so. Driving a GR discussion on that issue is too much for me, but posing a question to the TC is within the energy I have available. --Sam
