I don't think we need to discuss politics here, at least "politics of
those", i.e. personal views rather than merits of specific proposals. I
see no good that can come out of it. I think we know there are some
agents out there (not here on the list) that have interests outside of
the well-being of this community, and I think that's as far as we should
go in discussing them here, going further IMO won't help any.

Yes, the code - whatever its formula ends up being - is a political
document in its essence, as it aims to describe our goals, behavioral
patterns, social agreements and mores, etc. - which is ultimately what
politics is about. However, that does not mean we should bring in
political discussions not related to out community, I think it would not
help.
