To be clear, Jeff, I am 100% in agreement with you that a mechanism like =
what you=E2=80=99re proposing is a million times better than having high =

the present circumstances it seems like the only alternative. However, =

figure out a mechanism to enable hard forks (which we knew from the =
start would be inevitable) - and more to the point, we=E2=80=99ve known =
about this block size issue from the start as well=E2=80=A6and only =
suddenly it becomes an issue of major urgency that we must bump up this =
parameter 20x=E2=80=A6
