Hi Federico and all, I have just posted a detailed update to the discussion thread regarding VK12 (offset-sync data loss) and VK10 (namespace collisions).
Because both of these items are directly tied to critical data safety and operational stability during failover, I do not believe the KIP is ready for a vote in its current state. Let's finish addressing these remaining design gaps in the discussion thread first.
