Sure. The following is the voting outcome. I'll update the KIP too.
Voting on this KIP ends with 3 binding and 1 non-binding +1 votes.
Thanks to everyone who participated in the discussion / voted on this KIP.
The decision was to include it in the release following 0.10.2.0.
Binding votes by:
* Ismeal Juma
* Gwen Shapira
* Jason Gustafson
Non-binding vote by:
* Stevo Slavić
Comments and feedback are still welcome!

Thanks. Is it worthwhile updating the KIP with the timeline? So
someone like me who is catching up can figure out the status?
