Re: [s-d] [s-b] Consultation

["Geoffrey Spear" <geoffspear@xxxxxxxxx>]

Rule 0 does not claim to suspend all of the rest of the Rules, and I
can't think of any reason to assume it does so implicitly.

Time-based actions are either postponed or canceled, depending on
whether they're based on ntime or real time.  Answering of
Consultations is not time-based, so it can be done during the Pause.

However, if we select a Refresh Proposal that ZOTs all pending
proposals, which seems overwhelmingly likely at this point, it would
be a waste of time to Answer anything.
