By going over it fairly rapidly, it look like the new block size would be voted by the miners. Honestly i think this is a great counter offer to the shifty XT core fork.
If only what i read get implemented i think we should consider it. Unless it get bundled with other crap like XT did.

Three major pools have started tagging their block's coinbase signatures with BIP100 to indicate their support. F2pool, the biggest bitcoin pool, has started supporting BIP100 and all their mined blocks the last 24 hours are tagged to indicate support towards the proposal. But F2pool wasn't the first pool to start showing their support towards the proposal. On August 23 kano.is also started supporting the proposal and was followed by bitclub.
I would consider today a breakthrough for the block size debate. ~25% of the total hashrate has started showing support towards this newly introduced proposal. While Slush pool is the only pool bringing out bip101 blocks, bringing the total on bip101 supporting blocks mined to 5, only over the last day the top pool has contributed more blocks than that. Of course, the largest pool is more influential, but that's not the only reason to believe that BIP100 is doing better. BIP100 is also supported by more pools and the miners in those pools seem to fully stand behind this decision.
What's your take on this? Will BIP100 receive more acceptance? Could it overtake BIP101 to become the accepted solution?
