I talk it over with Atila after the review threads are done, then
decide. Voting is a terrible way to do engineering design, for many
reasons I can list if you like.
You don't need to, I'm not a fan of such a voting approach too. I just
added a bunch of variants as I didn't know how the process works nor
who is involved at what step.
Not totally. I was unable to convince people that printf format
validation was an orthogonal feature. So I went ahead and implemented
that to show it had nothing to do with the proposal:
https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/10812
It turned out kinda sweet, and found a huge number of latent bugs in
our own code, proving we shoulda done that long ago :-) Bad printfs
turned out to be much more common than I'd anticipated.
Proving by showing the results... Ok, looking forward how things develop.
