Hi!
My fingers have been itching many times now, this debate drives me nuts.
I just wish all posters could follow two simple principles:
1. Read up. Yes. All of what has been written. Yes, it will take many hours. But if you're rehashing what other smarter people have said over and over before, you're wasting hundreds of peoples time. Please don't.
2. Be helpful. Suggest alternatives. Just cristizising is just destructive. If you want no change, then say so.
Mats
Also, can we try to get a wiki page for the debate? That way we could condense the information as much as possible. I'll be willing to assist if the page gets approval. On Jun 1, 2015 6:41 PM, "Mats Henricson" <mats@henricson•se> wrote:

I second this, I don't have time to read the large number of emails generated every day from the block size debate. A summary of the various positions and arguments would be extremely helpful.

I don't have permission to create a page. If someone else does, I'll happily get a framework started.

Gabe,
Did you ever get an answer to this?
I"ll have some time tomorrow to be able to help with some work on this and will need to do it myself anyways since I'm not sure I understand the nuances, where bitcoin XT fits into the scheme of things (or not) etc.
I would have thought that there would be a testnet4 by now using 8mb blocks... but hey that's just me.

Yeah. We made a git repo instead, so we don't have to bother with the exclusive-by-default wiki policies. It's linked in this email chain.
I'll be getting home tomorrow, so I should be able to start back up on this. A few days from now we should throw this on /r/Bitcoin so we can get some more public comment on it. They already gave me a few leads to chase. On Jun 5, 2015 11:34 PM, "Pindar Wong" <pindar.wong@gmail•com> wrote:

Please use the one it's originally forked from that Ethan made. I don't want to be the one who sorts through what's valid and what isn't, as I don't have as low-level an understanding as I'd like. I don't feel qualified. On Jun 6, 2015 2:34 AM, "Pindar Wong" <pindar.wong@gmail•com> wrote:

Just pushed the template for Arguments 3, 4, 6, and a full Argument 2. Argument 5 should be pro, but is currently not defined. Argument 6 may be merged with Argument 4 if you think that's necessary.
