I'm getting rather annoyed by this accusations of a "badly managed
release", and the continual diatrade from yourself blaming me and the
rest of the release team.

You may consider it most natural, the rest of the project values
stability and not introducing untested new features. Perhaps you may
feel more at home in a different distribution which aligns with your
priorities more.

As it happens, I'm currently canvassing a release weekend when everyone
who needs to do work on the day can make it. Messages such as the above
do not help in any way, shape or form.
