Err, I thought we did. We had a protracted discussion of Simon's
patch: 9 people expressed an opinion; 6 were opposed.
With respect to this patch, the basic design was discussed previously
and Simon, Fujii Masao, Greg Stark and myself all were basically in
favor of something along these lines, and to the best of my
recollection no one spoke against it.

Well, I've already spent a fair amount of time trying to explain my
understanding of it, and for my trouble I got accused of being
long-winded. Which is probably true, but makes me think I should
probably keep this response short. I'm not unwilling to talk about
it, though, and perhaps someone else would like to chime in.
