The last message I received from you was on 10 Jul. I have sent 3 follow-up messages before Monday, 12 Jul (when the Bernd low hit Germany). Since then, nothing. And before you invoke the Bernd argument: I'm also a first responder, and while the high Rhine wasn't nearly as badly affected as the middle Rhine/Eifel area in terms of floodings, I understand that you might not have had the time to respond (even though you pushed 19 commits to ::gentoo on 13 Jul). That said, "let me check whether soap wrote something in PM" seems to have never occurred since 12 Jul at any point, which raises doubts as to whether this is such a critical issue after all...
