People squashing Gavin's forward moving ideas. Oh dear, BTC showing early signs of death.

No signs of death here. Those who want to stay behind are more than welcome to. They claim that their 1MB chain will end up superior and yet they keep pleading page after page for us to stick around and not leave them behind. Doesn't sound like they have much confidence in their words. One way or another, the forward momentum will carry on.

And twisting logic, such as claiming that people who voted agnostic/DGAF are automatically against the fork.

Indeed. And if we do start hitting full blocks on a regular basis, people will suddenly become far less agnostic and will definitely "GAF" when their transactions take longer to confirm. It would be far nicer, however, to avoid that rather unfortunate turn of events and fix it before it becomes an issue.

PPS: I am always open to well-thought-out alternative ideas. If there is a simple, well-thought-out proposal for an adaptive blocksize increase, please point me to it.

This is the part they're struggling with. After at least three threads and who knows how many hundreds of pages, they still can't suggest a viable alternative that doesn't involve providing a second-tier service to the majority of users. Quick to say the sky is falling and make idle threats to protect their own petty interests, but slow to provide an alternative that doesn't benefit them at the expense of everyone else.
