Re: [TCLCORE] VOTE RESULTS: TIPs #156 and #157

[Jacob L. <jy...@mo...>]

Congratulations on the vote on #157. This was long and arduous. Let's try
to stop the arguments and make the best of it.

If #157 is wrong, we can always go back later and fix things -- not the
end of the world.

Thanks to Kevin for leading this vote in an impartial manner and pushing
this applecart towards a goal (any goal :).
