It is not clear which one people think we're voting on. ROC responded with a point about Jer's proposal that appeared to refer to the last alternative only.

Thanks Joe, I was attributing my slight confusion on the matter to my lack of tech expertise, but it looks like the problem is that the options are actually not that well defined yet.

My understanding was that Jer's proposal (for lack of a better term - I know that Jer has said it was not his preferred solution, only a proposed compromise) was the first one listed in the gist I shared, but I might be wrong.

Marcus has started trying to clarify each of the issues on bugzilla. I'd like everyone to work there (using the wiki or whatever other platform to collaboratively draft longer bits of text if need be) until we have clear proposals that people can vote on.

The vote can be postponed until then.
