Agreed, we are agreeing violently. The only thing that should be
needed for the ABI is the DPL and the Debian Project Secretary.
Nothing else should be necessary.

For *sure* we should not be requiring the SPI board to read the 14

the flamewars on the debian mailing lists about how to interpret the
whole mess.
