Fair enough. But much discussion on PureOS is distributed. There are
internal Purism discussions, Matrix, various issue trackers (gitlab,
phabricator) and of course person to person. I try and build consensus
in each channel before a concrete proposal.

Sure. But I'd love your thoughts on the topic before I do.

I wouldn't want to leave anyone out of the discussion but right now I
think we need to know what's possible before we drive consensus on a
proposal. Internally various teams see the move to Buster as positive,
next is to understand what we need to do to make it happen and if it is
even possible with our tooling.

Cheers,

Jeremiah
