As a corollary to your message, I'm wondering what would be the earliest we
could open the vote?
Our policy on the topic says:
There'd be a minimum of 2 weeks between when an RFC that touches the
language is brought up on this list and when it's voted on is required.
Other RFCs might use a smaller timeframe, but it should be at least a week.
Should it be one or two weeks?
Clarifying this is part of my current policy RFC. The established
consensus (and expectations from users) is at least 2 weeks of
discussion for everything.
That would be Friday, September 19th 2025 17:54 Europe/Paris then.
Even when taking into account the expectation that changes to the RFC
text requires additional discussion (my policy RFC is also formalizing
that), I'd say that the changes you have made to the RFC are only
clarification that do not change the actual proposal, which would be a
minor change under the definition of my proposal.
Therefore I'd say that starting the vote at any point after the above
mentioned time is strictly within policy.
(I don’t expect to convince Tim
either way, so from my side that part of the discussion is done. ;) )
I agree.
I'm also okay with the updated RFC text. While there are still some
things that I believe could be presented differently (as I outlined in
my email earlier today), it reasonable fairly represents the situation.
I still disagree with the proposal itself, of course :-)
Best regards
