[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi Doug, I have followed your work with great interest, though I have to admit that, because I am not a developer or DevOps practitioner, my understanding is incomplete. I am in 100% agreement with you that the PR I shared is less important than the runtime spec. I just wanted to bring it to the list's attention since the author has said he would welcome FreeBSD involvement and they plan a vote tomorrow. Several others, representing developers and end users, are also interested in helping with the runtime spec. I would love to connect them with you and see how we may be able to work together. Thanks!
