Already explained the problems with that from multiple angles and a multiple number of times on various threads both on and off the list. > 2. Not accepting your patch until (1) is done.

Well that was after a bout of abuses and vulgar remarks in #gnu. People in #gnu are quite familiar with such behaviour from AMS. To that he added a threat to commit my patch in any way he deemed fit. That was a problem because the work was in a very initial stage and would have severely hindered me. And just to keep records straight, I was anointed a maintainer some months back, when yours/Jeff's/Alfred's names were not on the maintainers file, possibly due to a mistake. I offered to step down as a friendly gesture after a conversation with Alfred on IRC. Having this "we, the maintainers" versus "you" attitude is not what I bargained for. > 4. Attempting to calm things down and trying to return to a technical > discussion. Saying that "we, the maintainers will decide" without ever giving a sound reasoning is what has come from the other side. As I said earlier I have explained my position a number of times from a number of different angles to various people, including Karl and Alfred both on and off-list. If you have missed parts of that discussion then let me know. I can try one last time. :-)
