<br>
What changes are you planning to make?<br>
<br>
Are you going to submit a proposal and RFC?<br></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>There have been several RFCs...</div><div><br></div><div>What's your specific question?</div><div><br></div><div>I'm planning to essentially try to build a new pass management layer that doesn't suffer from the problems the existing one does. I could describe every interface I plan in prose and email it out, but I'm not sure that's really the most effective way to do it. My plan has been to work on implementing the new system in-tree, and let folks code review it and pick it apart as usual. When folks are happy with it, and it works, then we can look at switching over.</div>
