I would save the Federation. I would save it the shortest way under the Specification. The sooner the instance authority can be restored the nearer the Federation will be "the Federation as it was." If there be those who would not save the Federation unless they could at the same time save OStatus, I do not agree with them. If there be those who would not save the Federation unless they could at the same time destroy OStatus, I do not agree with them. My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Federation, and is not either to save or destroy OStatus. If I could save the Federation without fixing any instance, I would do it, and if I could save it by fixing all the instances, I would do it, and if I could save it by fixing some and leaving others alone, I would also do that. What I do about instances and the server software, I do because I believe it helps to save this Federation, and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Federation. I shall do less whenever I shall believe what I am doing hurts the cause, and I shall do more whenever I shall believe doing more will help the cause. I shall try to correct errors when shown to be errors; and I shall adopt new views so fast as they shall appear to be true views.
