I think the maintainer saw the writing on the wall, so I count this as a successful intervention by the TC. (I hope the new maintainers will prove me right.)

FAOD I value your opinion, and it doesn't make me happy to hear that from you. I've been thinking about this and will think some more. I still (perhaps, even more so) believe we need to have a better way of dealing with these kind of disputes. Regards, Ian. -- Ian Jackson <ijack...@chiark.greenend.org.uk> These opinions are my own.
