Not sure what the intent here is, but "putting to rest" sounds ominous ;-)

As members of a large and diverse open source project and members of
the larger open source ecosystem, innovation should be embraced. Just
because a decision is made in one cycle, doesn't mean that's the best
way to do something from then on.

I would encourage us, as a group, not to seek (or get chased into) the
rut of dogmatism...

But, perhaps you just meant: "let's get some consensus from project
leaders on the recommended way for now" -- and that sounds great to me
;-)
