Oh, absolutely.  I just didn't want your presence on that list to be
perceived as any kind of support from Mozilla.  I read that a
Microsoft person removed their name just today for the same reason.

https://github.com/robohornet/robohornet/issues/67 has a good summary
of the concerns, via comments from jlebar and I.  I guess we can wait
and see if they respond further.  If you want to also press him
privately for a response to those comments, that wouldn't hurt.  If
they are willing to redo things from scratch, avoiding
microbenchmarks, then there's potential for a good outcome here.
