I'm just a user and I follow this list. That is to say, it doesn't
matter what typical users or maintainers do, it's enough if just one
relevant person is following. It would be nice though, if there are any
such people, if they would speak up and offer their opinion or say that
they are going to take it to whichever manager/committee they need to.

FWIW, I think Greg was a bit too outspoken calling long maintenance
attempts 'crazy'; that may have intimidated some. I'm thinking of
moving distro to one that provides longer term maintenance than my
present one. Although CIP is a completely different ball game; I hope
they succeed.

Cheers, Dave
