[Jay Abbott]

> What is your evaluation of the proposal?

It seems like a sensible step on the way to more advanced workflow, stats,
testing, checking upgrades, and reporting features - without closing any
doors.

do you feel that this proposal compares to those?

This is a better and more considered approach.

or an in-depth study?

A quick reading, plus previous consideration of this issue when it has
caused both team and CI problems in other package managers.
