Wow.
(moving to the dev list, as it is completely inappropriate for the users
list)
You jump on the list saying how urgent it is you have this released because
it has been broken for a while. We act to release it as quickly as possible,
and you complain that it was too quick. Make up your mind! :)
Half of the PMC voted. The time that the vote would be open for was
specified, and elapsed.
As for forwarding a result to the PMC - this is not Jakarta. There are not
multiple subprojects and a huge number of PMC members - the PMC is active in
the dev list.
If you are genuinely concerned, feel free to discuss it - but please tell me
you actually think there was some reason this shouldn't have gone ahead.
