Adam, you need to tell these fools if they're going to fork to skip BU entirely and do just a plain 4MB fork with 8MB possibly to be activated at a future date like a few years from now. BU isn't a good model and we've already been over this stuff before with Monero.
the bitcoin model isn't 1 dev team 1 set of rules to rule them all.
BU
is the bitcoin model
the sooner poeple comes to grips with that the better.
if you think this is the last "hostile take over" your nuts
