Sorry, that is not what I meant to say at all.

You used to micromanage, but it was _very_ good for git back then. I admit that only once I found you too picky and difficult to work with while I was fixing a bad premature-free bug in the diffcore-rename code, but overall your attention to detail well paid off.

Since I inherited the project, we added quite a lot of stuff, but I was still unsure if we are making good progress, or just stagnating with only small enhancements and obvious fixes.

But Fredrik merge turns out to be a spectacular success as you found out, which is a triumph for Fredrik, but at the same time it means I was not doing too bad myself ;-).
