I plan to call for a vote on eXIf after the two week discussion have
elapsed, which will be Jan 30.  I'll call for a vote on zXIf after *its*
two weeks have elapsed, which will be 14 days after Jan 25.

If eXIf (uncompressed) passes, which I expect will happen, then zXIf
becomes moot.

That is, according to the latest incarnation of the voting ruies
(which are still unofficial!; I'll call for a vote on the current voting
rules
proposal soon (Jan 28, I think).
