What's the rationale for holding off declarations of consensus?  This
decision is two weeks overdue, and the split (if it happens) could take
several more weeks.

It would be a complete travesty if a simple consensus call took weeks
but a major decision like a split of the WG was completed in a hurry --
for one, it would suggest that the split was preordained, and not a
joint WG decision, a point that Bilel was seeking clarification on.
