We're all in favor of the 64 bit implementation, but definitely not on the naming. I think it was a big mistake to not separate the naming and implementation votes initially. I also would support a shorter RFC cycle, due to its blocking nature. [Vote in 2-3 days, vote lasting one week as usual] Bob
