Hello. I've seen Greg make a couple of posts online<br>
(<a href=3D"https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3D1033396.msg11155302#m=

3396.msg11155302#msg11155302</a><br>
is one such example) where he has mentioned that Pieter has a new<br>
proposal for allowing multiple softforks to be deployed at the same<br>
time. As discussed in the thread I linked, the idea seems simple<br>
enough. Still, I'm curious if the actual proposal has been posted<br>
anywhere. I spent a few minutes searching the usual suspects (this<br>
mailing list, Reddit, Bitcointalk, IRC logs, BIPs) and can't find<br>
anything.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
