<div dir="ltr">Hi Tim, et. al.,<div class="gmail_extra"><div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div>Hmm. Well this is unfortunate timing for two API changes concerning the authentication system. There appears to be no advance notice that a vote had been scheduled (maybe I missed it). It seems the voting ballot measure was created, then voting initiated immediately after, with no prior concrete decision upon what contents the measure should include.</div><div><br></div><div>The two auth system API changes (one started but unfinished, the other not yet drafted) were stalled due to recent resource changes at Boundless.
