Thanks Bryan for collating these links in one great list. This is very
helpful and thanks for sharing it.

Feel free to fork https://github.com/EthanHeilman/BlockSizeDebate
edit to add the list of proposals and create a pull request to Ethan.

There's also a miningconsensus.slack.com group to have discussion w.r.t.
fact/source checking, completeness  (e.g. from IRC) etc.

Tks.
