Thank you. This makes your position clear, even if I don't
entirely agree with it. On that note, though: this really
should have been part of the DIP acceptance announcement, not
added as an afterthought. Otherwise people will perceive
(correctly or not) the DIP as being accepted without
acknowledging any of the issues raised. This summary is
exactly what would have defused a lot of the frustrations
raised here. For the future may I recommend making it a point
to include such a summary with the announcement of each DIP
accepted/rejected.

This is a very good point, and I think that in the future Walter
and I should attach an explanation of why a DIP got accepted or
not for transparency and communication reasons.
