I like the way Adam Back runs the miners meeting, then avoids his name appearing in the press releases.
Makes me think he has an agenda. You know, that open secret to ensure Blockstream road map gets fully implemented into Core.

Adam was into bitcoin before there even was a bitcoin... Maybe he's jealous that he missed out on the early days of something that was built on his invention of hash cash, but he sounds like a pretty reasonable guy...

He should just be open and say, we're not ready with side chains, or whatever they are still working on, but we should be ready by July 2017 so that's the hard fork date when we'll ship Blockstream road map into core.
I actually like some of the Blockstream proposals, but there is no good enough reason to manipulate the entire network.
