Sounds like a reasonable move to me. Thanks for making it clear.

ACK (a few months ago I suggested a sprint for the same reasons).
So now, I don't think it's worth it that I look at the current
blueprint, if I can only comment over email. I'd rather wait for next
time I get the chance to meet a few of you in person (likely in
November).

Thanks for clarifying your involvement in this process. It should help
others know if/when they should be waiting for you, which feels
important to me.

So, next step is that those who have more time available to put into
the Greeter thing team up and finish prototypes (be it on paper or
actual code) that can be tested with users, right?
In passing: it would be good to get a panel for testing that's built
from existing users *and* first time users. For the Greeter in
particular, it feels critical to me to provide *both* a good UX for
1st time users, *and* something efficient for existing ones.
