I am not :) As I repeated, the priorities seem wrong to me. There are many pending work items that don't involve any ABI changes, and IMO, we should focus on them before we even start discussing ABI changes. I've been quiet because I don't think opinion based discussions are essential to nailing down ABIs. As I suggested, I prefer a Kconfig option as the first step so that people can play with it. After we have collected field data, then we'd be better at coming up with suitable ABIs.
