How is this being pigheaded? In my opinion, this is leadership. If
*something* isn't implemented soon, the network is going to have some real
problems, right at the
time when adoption is starting to accelerate. I've been seeing nothing but
navel-gazing and circlejerks on this issue for weeks now. Gavin or Mike or
someone at some
point needs to step up and say "follow me".
