Consensus changes should be done using consensus, and&#xA;&gt; the default in case of controversy is no change.&#xA;&#xA;This is a really interesting thread. Since we&#39;re no longer talking&#xA;about a consensus of the core committers, which would be central&#xA;control, but instead something broader, could you say a bit more about&#xA;what this consensus might look like, and how we&#39;ll know if we&#39;ve got&#xA;one?&#xA;&#xA;In plain language &#34;no controversy&#34; sounds like very high bar for a&#xA;diverse community like this; Even bringing in P2SH kicked up a fair&#xA;bit of fur and feathers. Do you have a definition in mind where it&#xA;isn&#39;t an _impossibly_ high one?&#xA;&#xA;-- &#xA;Edmund Edgar&#xA;Founder, Social Minds Inc (KK)&#xA;Twitter: @edmundedgar&#xA;Linked In: edmundedgar&#xA;Skype: edmundedgar&#xA;http://www.socialminds.jp&#xA;&#xA;Reality Keys&#xA;@realitykeys&#xA;support at realitykeys.com&#xA;https://www.realitykeys.com</html></oembed>
