I didn't claim that there was an attempt to remove James from the team. I claimed that there was an attempt to remove responsibilities from him without asking him beforehand. > You are malicious on purpose, even.

Oh, I don't believe you're evil (despite you joking about wanting to have me physically beaten because you didn't like an email I sent). I just believe that having you as DPL would be a bad thing. > The only thing you manage to do is to demonstrate that I have > been very active during the year, talked to a lot of people, > looked at all conceivable options and discussed them with people > even outside the DPL team.

No, but I did spend a great deal of time trying to talk you out of things I thought were harmful and trying to convince people not to quit the project because of things you were proposing to do. I acknowledge that you've spent a great deal of time and effort on Debian in the past year.
