No, that was just to explain why what can be applied to other standards can't to Gemini. My
proposal is fairly simple if you remove all the language bloat:
1. Take the original spec
2. Slap a public domain or whatever on it
3. Done. Now don't do anything, forever.

He can correct me if I'm wrong, but I assume that the final spec will be released under somesort of public domain license. Per the FAQ the goal appears to be to submit it to IETF and/orIANA.

This will apply when we start holding elections for Gemini.

Perhaps controversial, but we should not do this. Elections in a small, niche online communityare a quick path to capture by groups who don't have the community's best interest in mind.I've seen this happen many times.
