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.

Why not make a blog post? That is where we have put similar things before (e.g. type system changes, MC)
