I'm really not interested in a fight at all, I just don't want the tree to get full of crap like this and if you were willing to discuss such major changes with us all such bad feeling would never arise in the first place. I'm pissed off by the attitude you have that technical discussions just hold up progress and to just go it alone with whatever idea you happen to agree with. Changing the policy of bmaking everything in the main tree seems quite significant to me and not a decision that was yours to make alone and you clearly haven't considered all the implications of such a change. Can we hold off on this until people have had a chance to comment, the clear consensus is that this is a bad move.
