It has happened before: for example, Bazaar vs. Git, and not allowing dynamic
loading of libraries. Yet both of these positions changed over time. I can't
think of a "political over technical" decision right now that bothers me; and
the fact that those that did finally resolved themselves, gives me faith in
being able to work with the FSF. So yes, I can live with it happening
occasionally.
I further think that working alongside Eli would be nice, if he's up for it.
Having an active co-maintainer would relieve some of the time pressure of this
position, since I can't give equal focus every week.
