The official start of the discussion period should likely be announced 
in a separate thread that also contains the "RFC" keyword within the 
Subject, otherwise it might be missed.

Regarding the RFC itself, I find the voting options unclear. It says 
that they are mutually exclusive, but it doesn't say what happens when 
multiple are accepted. Personally I can see myself voting for both 
"Option 1" and "Option 2", because I believe it is useful if users would 
be able to make them final for consistency, but I would find it even 
more useful if they would all be final by default, but would not find it 
useful to introduce a new 'open' keyword. Some other folks might want to 
see all anon classes final by default, but don't care about whether 
there is the escape hatch or not and thus would vote for all 3 options.

(I'm happy to repeat that above paragraph in the new thread, once you 
create it, but this gives you some time to think about it already)

Best regards
