As Tim said, it needs at least a 2 week discussion period.  It's also go=
od practice to give it a few days after the last meaningful change, and =
announce an intent to open the vote a day or three in advance.

Did I miss it or did I not see a PR linked from the RFC?  While technica=
lly having an implementation is not a prerequisite of an RFC, it is stro=
ngly recommended.  (Also, having written the original patch, I'm curious=
 if you're doing it the same way I did.  It also may be sensible to use =
the compile step rather than strictly the lexer; moving pipes from stric=
tly lexer to a compile step was a very smart move, for instance, as it s=
implified a lot of the ancillary behavior around debugging and error mes=
sages.)
