Sorry, I am unable to see a personal attack whatsoever when reading

I think that can work both ways. I am old enough to have seen many instances
of some new hotness coming along and any objection to it being swept aside
because it was clear that the people objecting just didn't understand why the
new hotness was so wonderful and why their concerns didn't matter anymore. My
experience has been that when those concerns have been ignored (they usually
are), things often don't end well.

I think we have seen and still see with usrmerge how difficult and cumbersome
the resolution of an initially as simple presented project turned out. I
understand the answer of Scott directed in that way, at least this is a
reservation of mine.
I can understand the upcoming frustration of people that have invested a lot of
energy in this thread, nevertheless I would like to return to the constructive
discussion that evolved in the meantime.
As was already said by others I would prefer at any rate a solution that could
conciliate the demands of the proponents of this draft GR as well as those of
the FTPmasters making the GR uncalled-for. IMHO the GR when happening will just
result in a lot of frustration on the 'loosing' side.
Please lets preserve the good energy and hard brain work invested in this thread
so far, it is too precious to lose.
Thanks
Mathias
