You suspect wrong. Sorry. Indeed, I already said as much about the current system, and it's scalability.

Sp please either make contributions that are intended to help the current
process rather than boring everyone with negativity

Since this is a WIP, how about taking it to a specific mailing list that is not related to how things currently operate. I read ports@ for one reason, and one reason only, to keep abreast of potential issues with the *current* system.

It's not hard to set up a mailing list. Hell, I'll even host it myself if that's what it takes, but as things stand, ports@ (or, indeed, any other exising mailing list) is not the right place to be discussing concepts that are, fluid.
