Protocol "Convention" as a Finalization Step in Network Upgrades

Not commenting on this proposal, but I think that’s one of the reasons community members may feel uncomfortable with how this polling went.

At least to me it feels like we have a bunch of regulars/developers who are active in discussions and then we have “unknown whales” that hold (or can direct to be moved for voting) large amounts of ZEC to show thier opinions.

A few scenarios:

Are they actually here and choose not to disclose they are whales?

Are they not here but know and trust others that are here that understand the issues and vote for themselves based on their friends feedback?

Are they not here and don’t care to understand the issues but are associates of someone that is here and support that person by voting for what that person supports?

We simply don’t know, so thats why when there is such a massive difference between the two camps it’s hard to come to common ground if the other camp chooses to remain silent and anonymous.

As ZF and SL said in thier individual posts: this is something that we need to solve if we want to know how to move forward on contentious issues.
