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. p.
