But will all that stuff be accepted? Please stop sending infrastructure
bits and focus on your larger RAS picture, once you have consensus on
that from all parties involved, then, and only then, does it make sense
to submit everything, including infrastructure.

As it stands now you're simply submitting infrastructure without any
users, and we all know the RAS thing isn't settled, so those users might
never come..
