Not being a developer per se, but nevertheless involved with the process, if the above happened I would more than likely unsubscribe from the -devel list and no doubt be inclined to not have any more involvement with GnuCash. There's no reason imho that patches and changes should clutter up the discussion on that list. Chris -- RedHat Certified Engineer #807302549405490.
