This is mainly addressed to Thomas Modes, but since it's not the first
time I've seen him behave like this, I think it's time to come out in
the open.

Sorry, but is wrong.  I spent quite a bit of time going through this
page a while back, and it contains numerous issues.  Apart from
autopano-sift-c, in the main text there are also references to
autopano-sift, match-n-shift, ptoinfo, ptscluster, ptoclean,
ptovariable and panostart, as well as to the pano.mk file that no
longer exists.

In the "Full list of command-line [sic] tools", only 5 of the first 10
tools still exist.  I also seem to recall that some of the options are
also no longer relevant, though I could be wrong here.

This list also contains the line:

    autopano - Keypoint matcher, part of autopano-sift-c and not to be confused 
with autopano

Well, I'm confused.  Beginners certainly will be.

Maybe you have a different definition, but for me this is very out of
date.

I had intended to bring this page up to date.  Based on this attack,
you will understand that I am now disinclined to do so.  It will
remain out of date until somebody else who recognizes the problem also
finds time and inclination to do something about it.

Next time, before answering, check your facts.  You come across as
offensive and inaccurate, not for the first time.  This attitude also
greatly reduces people's willingness to cooperate in the project.  A
few years back a whole lot of people were involved in the project.
Now you seem to be the only one.  It would be easy to get the
impression that your attitude has something to do with this.
