Unfortunately personal politics has a lot to do with it even though
it's not admitted in open public.  It's no coincidence that the person
delaying the multiproto pull request is also one of the main guys for
the new api.  Additionally, there's a long history of "disagreements"
between the parties involved.  There has even been attempts to mislead
people about multiproto in an effort to gain support for the new api.
The more I look into this, the more childishness I discover taking
place.
