I write this mail to the technical committee to state that since Niklas Haas has stated intent to stop discussing on the mailing-list, I am asking the technical committee to make a decision on the subject. It will take me a little time, at least several hours, maybe a few days, to properly express my arguments clearly and cross-reference them for your convenience, but I can already give the gist of them: - The patch series lacks transverse user documentation. - The patch series increases the risk of data corruption due to user negligence and should include at least some guardrails against that. I will develop both these points as soon as possible. In the meantime, it should go without saying but I am afraid it needs to be said, (1) Niklas Haas cannot be part of the decision, or even private discussion if there is one, since he is already part of the disagreement, and (2) the patch series cannot be pushed until the decision is made.
