Will this pool be signaling for segwit at any point?

I ran a search to find Kano's opinions on it and it seems he's opposed to it for a few reasons. Attempted dev control of bitcoin and disk space issues stand out the most in my memory. Any further clarifications would be appreciated. I don't visit the forums that much, so I apologise if I missed a post regarding it.

Would also be very interested to hear ck's opinion as well. Thanks.
I'm not against it. Kano and I differ in opinion on this one and ultimately this is his pool; I'm part of the administration and tech support but it's not my pool.

Kano, how do you feel about letting your pool users vote for or against segwit?
Nope.
ckpool doesn't allow it anyway.

Good For you Kano, just another reason why I love this pool so much.  I don't know why anyone who relies on mining for their livelihood would support segwit.  Besides of the technical concerns, it would be taking money out of our (the miners) pockets. It would allow off chain mining which I am 100% against and with that you can kiss those juicy 13+ BTC blocks goodbye.
