I do not see what their comments have to do with your attitude.
Aren't your own man with cogent self-will and personal responsibility?
 Why should I also have to consider these other emails which I have
not bothered to read yet?

You seem to have mistaken me for someone else.  Moreover, you seem to
have mistaken you for someone else.  You are the least easy target I
know of on this list.  Everyone else seems open to community

I did not comment on their posts because they did not catch my eye.
Rebase and cherry-pick improvements are interesting to me, so I read
your post.  I will try not to make this mistake again.
