Hi Andrew and the other signatories,
Why do you think nobody in Core wants to engage at all with consensus
changes (or, at least, specifically the proposals for CTV & CSFS)?
The usual purpose of an open letter is to generate public pressure
against the target (otherwise, if you didn't want to generate public
pressure, you would send a private letter). Does that mean that you
feel the lack of engagement is a result of a previous lack of pressure?
I have to admit that runs counter to my own sense---I thought there was
already significant social pressure on Bitcoin Core contributors to work
on CTV (and now CSFS); I wouldn't expect more pressure to achieve new
results; rather, I'd expect more pressure to create more frustration on
all sides.
Alternatively, if you feel like the lack of engagement is a result of
some other condition, I would be curious to learn of that condition and
learn why you thought an open letter (with what comes across as an
ultimatum) would help address it.
Thanks,
-Dave
