Hi.

As I said in the mail I just sent, using git head instead of the version
in Debian seems to work.

But now just replying to the mailing-list just works, and that is very
good, I will just do that. Thanks again for that.

It is not a threat.

Am I the only one who remembers this whole thing is an EXPERIMENT?

Well, when there is an experiment, at some point one must observe the
results and draw conclusions.

So, as leader, what observations do you make and what conclusions do you
draw?

Is it a frank success, shall we continue?

Is it a failure, shall we drop it and go back to something that works?

Or is it in-between, shall we go back to what we were doing and try
again in a few years fixing our mistakes?

What I observe from here:

- Promises of documentation were made and not kept.

- We have a worsening of the communication in the project due to a
  fragmentation of the discussions into pull requests that only a
  handful of people follow, it has lead to patches being applied without
  a proper review and containing severe flaws.

I do not call that a success.

I cannot write documentation for things I am not capable of doing.


By the way, I just enable 2FA on my account, so you can make it able to
approve or close pull requests and such if you please.
