I accept. As an aside, I really wish we could make a standard practice of using more meaningful Subjects for discussing GCDs, such as: Subject: GCD 006: Updating the package deprecation policy and processes Or maybe every GCD should have a shortname: Subject: GCD 006: package deprecation: Deliberation starts Something, anything more than an arbitrary number to get a sense for what we are talking about. The fact that GCD 006 and GCD 007 discussions were going on concurrently and I sometimes do not have the cognitive space to maintain what those arbitrary numbers are talking about (things have been a bit rough in various ways lately)... which, much to my surprise, severely limited my energy to participate in any meaningful way. I do not want to need something like an IDE to follow these discussions! To people who are particularly vested in their proposal, or really interested in the particular outcome, or people just prone to associating temporary arbitrary numbers to carry deeper meaning, maybe an arbitrary number is meaningful, but I usually need some sort of human language text associated. We do not have to mirror one of the biggest ongoing mistakes of the SRFI system in our processes. :) live well, vagrant
