Yes, I've been following. It's been a long road.

I'm very interested in whether this one works. You and I are completely
aligned on this. I don't think I'm paying enough attention to the
emailed patch attestations as you have. I think I understand the
requirements but maybe not all of them. Do you have any threads on
public-inbox where you discuss them? I want to make sure that what I'm
doing doesn't undermine anything you're trying to do. The end goal is to
have an air-tight provenance on all contributions and
accountable/audtiable software supply chain. We're all working towards
that.

Hopefully this approach strikes the right balance.

Cheers!
