It's just an idea: since some people want the rules unchanged and others want them changed, how about a new coin with changed rules and the old coin with unchanged rules. Then everyone can use the coin they prefer. Or both.

I was thinking I'd just take a snapshot at some point in time and have the new coin start with the same amounts in each address as in the old coin at that point in time. So Poloniex would have the same number of newcoins as they had CLAMs in block 730k.
