I'm pretty sure Charles knows this very well, but good intentions alone do not justify all (in-)actions done with them. > For what it's worth, I think Bill made the right choice in reverting the > change and trying to find a variant that had consensus.

I don't think it's worth much in the context of this bug, but since you started it, and since I don't want Charles to become even more frustrated because of additional, vocal after-the-fact opposition like yours: looking through the discussion I think Bill is blocking other people's work, and Charles is completely right in his anger. I hope the ctte will find time for this soon. Best, Nikolaus -- GPG encrypted emails preferred.
