As you say Noah - agreeing to disagree is ok and normal - so why can we not do that in the case of this proposal - there are a large segment of the community who disagree with it - and if we agreed to disagree - we go back to the status quo and there is no consensus - instead it seems we are being “forced to agree” - but for all the reasons stated and reiterated and never responded to - we will not be forced into agreement on this policy - we disagree with it - let’s agree to disagree and move on with life - and the status quo (the current soft landing)

Yes.

As per the softlanding policy already in place.
And the need to change to more stringent criteria ... ?
... is in my opinion not something we have a consensus about.

Ok



I believe if you say there is a consensus and I say there is no
consensus, then the conclusion is that there is no consensus between us,
or even in the larger group.

IMHO, the co-chairs are best placed to determine consensus vs no consensus.


Would you agree to these statements?

If its just between me and you... we can agree to disagree and that is normal.

Noah
