Please ask for clarification and politely indicate that a change may have to be reverted. It will be promptly followed up. Please don't reach a conclusion. Let me see! Can someone explain to me the reason why I might have added those in first place? Instead of the commit being wrong, is it possible that changes were incomplete. Do you have a solution for what that autoload was trying to solve. I am OK with the revert, btw. There is a popular saying in Tamil which goes like "One who has sown the seeds, will water the plants." I have been watering the plants, you know, whether I like it or not. ps: I am not interested in a discussion. --
