A seconder is a sponsor, so you'd need 4 more. The original proposer
cannot also sponsor the item:
  A resolution or amendment is introduced if proposed by any Developer
  and sponsored by at least K other Developers.

However, I also see yourself and Bastian Blank have sponsored this, you
you need three more for an instant vote to be triggered on if the
decision should be delayed until the GR is over or not.[0]

Neil
[0] Which has a voting period of two weeks, but can be varied by 1 week
by the DPL. DPL, would you be willing to do so if this situation occurs?

Seconded, as I also seconded the previous version[1].

That makes 1 proposer + 6 seconders = 7 sponsors for that GR. We would
need 3 more for the decisions to be put on hold immediately.
