Well said. I concur. The consensus principle is sound but its not an
absolute. I think that the matter at hand demanded action which would not
have completed quickly under a normal consensus seeking WG driven process.
What we have now will be tractable, and reflects wider society norms and
expectations. We can improve from here.
I'd like to congratulate the people who worked on this solution for getting
to somewhere fast which can hopefully quench emerging problems.
It saddened me hugely when I learned we needed this. It pleased me much
that we got to somewhere this quickly.
