Re: [cti] Taking a step back to gain some perspective

["Barnum, Sean D." <sbarnum@mitre.org>]

I wholeheartedly agree with Trey’s sentiments here.
We have a common foe and we all fight for the same purpose and principles.

In everything we do I encourage us all to look for our common ground and to seek options and solutions that address our own concerns without excluding or ignoring the concerns of others. This may involve lively debate at times but in the end should be convergent rather than divergent. I truly believe it is possible to find such consensus solutions. They may not always give everyone 100% of what they desire but they should ideally include all perspectives and offer best value to the community as a whole.


In the interests of community consensus and progress I will extend a similar olive branch and agree to halt my personal efforts to lobby towards JSON-LD as an official decision for the time being.
