Why are you quoting a guy who is not even a Core dev?
Are you implying he has some sort of influence over developers? Are you Classic shill or something?
are you implying that bitcoin is no longer decentralised and that all coding has to be allowed by core dev's?
short story:
one point of failure=one point of failure.
we need to stop kissing core-dev's asses and praying to them like gods and realise that bitcoin should be open to anyone.
stop arguing that people like gavin are different. if ANYONE comes up with a BIP. core fanboys should not deem it it as a threat, but something they too should consider including in core.
EG putting the 2mb hard fork code CAN and should be put into aprils release.. after all the grace period wont elapse until all other roadmap stuff is active. so there is no reason to delay it for a july16->july17 timeframe
start by getting the code in early and then let the community, miners and exchanges choose.. stop praying that core plan is the only plan
they have no reason to wait for july 2016 to put in the code. and no reason for a 12 month grace period after that.
april code release and a 6-9 month grace period seems better.
because people wont need to upgrade in april and again in july. instead they just upgrade in april and have the 2mb active by christmas, long after segwit is active
after all if core thinks its ok to release a version in november, february, march, april and july.. (5 versions in 9 months) then 1 version is acceptable in 9 months too
