For a few weeks now, I've been trying to get my head around what being a witness or running a witness server is really all about. I find myself oscillating between, "Meh, this isn't for me." and "Wow! This is so cool ... I think?"
Yesterday, I realised the only way I'm ever going to understand it -- I'm kinda long in the tooth -- not up with all this newfangled stuff -- is to dive in and try it!
Wish me luck! :-)
