Thank you for thinking pro-actively about this and presenting a concrete
proposal!

I disagree. I think these kinds of changes should be discussed with, and
consensus reached by, Ubuntu developers at large. If consensus is not
reached, then a decision should be made by the Release Team. As Ubuntu
developers, we delegate these kinds of decisions to the Release Team,
and so I do not think it's appropriate to pre-empt that.

I think you'd do an excellent job at driving this - but I suggest that
ubuntu-release@ (or perhaps ubuntu-devel@) would be a better venue.

I will happily participate in discussions there, without donning my TB
hat. In this case I'm not sure I'll have much to add to the expertise in
the Release Team, but we'll see!

Robie
