I didn't mention the block size limit; weak blocks are a good idea no matter=
the limit.
As for miners paying for the work: lots of companies contributed to the Foun=
dation, and will contribute to the DCI. When there are big, stable, profitab=
le companies I think we'll see them task their developers to contribute code=
.
I think optimizing new block propagation is interesting and important, so I p=
lan on working on it.
