X-BeenThere: bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.12 Precedence: list List-Id: Bitcoin Protocol Discussion List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 23 May 2017 17:50:14 -0000 Based on how fast we saw segwit adoption, why is the BIP149 timeout so far in the future? It seems to me that it could be six months after release and hit the kind of density required to make a stable transition. (If it were a different proposal and not segwit where we already have seen what network penetration looks like-- that would be another matter.)
