That might satisfy Paul Spooren's concern.

Although I took an editorial pass over an earlier version of the RFC, I'm not in a position to address your questions. 

Let me propose this process for continuing the conversation. With this response, I'm cc'ing:

- openwrt-devel
- RPM mailing list
- named individuals

Not everyone is subscribed to both lists, but cc'ing everyone who responds should keep everyone included.

Thank you.

Rich
