Sorry, I can't follow your argument / do not understand how this collides with consensus and why you think it does not apply. Can you describe why specifically it does not apply? I don't mean that we should use the exact implementation of noisebridge, but I'd love if we'd come up with our own one. To my knowledge at noisebridge nobody blocked (since it's existence in 2007?) but instead on occation people indicated that they would block and they'd like to discuss things further. As I understand it, it is not about blocking ideas but about forming them so everybody can agree with them (maybe with grinding teeth). regards florian -- Florian Friesdorf <f...@chaoflow.net> GPG FPR: 7A13 5EEE 1421 9FC2 108D BAAF 38F8 99A3 0C45 F083 Jabber/XMPP: f...@chaoflow.net IRC: chaoflow on freenode,ircnet,blafasel,OFTC
