I traveled around in China for a couple weeks after Hong Kong to visit =
with miners and confer on the blocksize increase and block propagation =
issues. I performed an informal survey of a few of the blocksize =
increase proposals that I thought would be likely to have widespread =
support. The results of the version 1.0 census are below.
My brother is working on a website for a version 2.0 census. You can =
view the beta version of it and participate in it at =
https://bitcoin.consider.it. If you have any requests for changes to the =
format, please CC him at m@toom.im.

F2Pool: Blocksize increase could be phased in at block 400,000. No =
floating-point math. No timestamp-based forking (block height is okay). =
Conversation was with Wang Chun via IRC.
AntPool/Bitmain: We should get miners and devs together for few rounds =
of voting to decide which plan to implement. (My brother is working on a =
tool which may be useful for this. More info soon.) The blocksize =
increase should be merged into Bitcoin Core, and should not be =
implemented in an alternate client like BitcoinXT. A timeline of about 3 =
months for the fork was discussed, though I don't know if that was =
acceptable or preferable to Bitmain. Conversation was mostly with Micree =
Zhan and Kevin Pan at the Bitmain HQ. Jihan Wu was absent.
Bitfury: We should fix performance issues in bitcoind before 4 MB, and =
we MUST fix performance issues before 8 MB. A plan that includes 8 MB =
blocks in the future and assumes the performance fixes will be =
implemented might be acceptable to us, but we'll have to evaluate it =
more before coming to a conclusion. 2-4-8 "is like parachute basejumping =
- if you jump, and was unable to fix parachute during the 90sec drop - =
you will be 100% dead. plan A) [multiple hard forks] more safe." =
Conversation was with Alex Petrov at the conference and via email.
KnC: I only had short conversations with Sam Cole, but from what I can =
tell, they would be okay with just about anything reasonable.
BTCC: It would be much better to have the support of Core, but if Core =
doesn't include a blocksize increase soon in the master branch, we may =
be willing to start running a fork. Conversation was with Samson Mow and =
a few others at BTCC HQ.
The conversations I had with all of these entities were of an informal, =
non-binding nature. Positions are subject to change. BIP100 was not =
included in my talks because (a) coinbase voting already covers it =
pretty well, and (b) it is more complicated than the other proposals and =
currently does not seem likely to be implemented. I generally did not =
bring up SegWit during the conversations I had with miners, and neither =
did the miners, so it is also absent. (I thought that it was too early =
for miners to have an informed opinion of SegWit's relative merits.) I =
have not had any contact with BW.com or any of the smaller entities. =
Questions can be directed to j@toom.im.
