I want to see more disparate development teams working on Zcash and contributing to the core protocol, so I support including the NSM in the next upgrade.
If it does end up delaying things by a few months so be it, at least we’ll get some meaningful data on what works well or can be improved on (from a collaboration standpoint) for the next upgrade.
We don’t want any single team to be a bottleneck in the process and I think this will take us a step closer to that goal.
