I do not know if I want to trust a person that has shown a certain eagerness to ignore good library design by breaking the well-established dont-change-apis-on-minor-versions idiom, and instead of listening to users that have problems as a consequence rather ignore them.

Instead, let's build on the knowledge of people we have learnt to trust, on this list.

Thank you, Dscho
