   No, you said it was a waste of time. That is a judgemental statement. So I 
got curious. I thought you said that, because you thought that reviewing build 
config as such was a waste of time. Only later, I found out that you probably 
would gladly review Gradle builds, just not Maven builds. And then, I got 
annoyed by your statements both on GitHub and Jira, all in the gist of "Gradle 
is great, Maven is crap" (paraphrasing the vibe I got when reading them).

   That was intentional. You got on my nerves with your negative, 
non-constructive statements, so I wanted to tell you about it in no uncertain 
terms, because not reviewing Maven POMs is a waste of time, but having to read 
utterly unhelpful statements like yours.
   
   Vladimir, you see that I am open for criticism, having taken your concerns 
about package relocation seriously and addressing them here, even though you 
bluntly just suggested to decline the PR. Hence my statement, that some people 
find a solution for every problem and others a problem in every solution. Being 
more constructive and less condescending in your own conversation style might 
do wonders to mine in response. Give it a try, you might be surprised.
