I agree the last sentence should not be posted in public space. I do not agree that it is not constructive criticism, i.e., I think it is constructive.

In open source (s)he-who-does-the-work-decides is fine with me with respect to general directions, coding decisions, vcs, etc, but this is not a code-problem. > I'm very glad!

Maybe he has not done as much as you (Brian), Dick or Jean-Pierre, he has been trying to be helpful.
