So you ask again in the next meeting. And if it happens again, you
file a protest. If it still happens, write a GLEP to prevent issues
from being deferred indefinitely. Do I really need to give you ideas
on how to stubbornly push proposals through?

There also comes a time when repeatedly bringing up a GLEP that you
have no interest in getting approved becomes rude and
counterproductive.

It is excessively misleading of you to claim that Brian said that the
GLEP 55 *authors* should push it to the Council. Nice strawman. He
made a simple statement: The people who want the GLEP should either
put it up for vote and settle it's status, or stop wasting everyone's
time and let it die.
