Julian, while you are entitled to mention your opintion, even in Germany, that right ends where it affects other people's personal dignity, honesty and rights, and this posting of yours was trespassing the red line with the "irresponsible ports crusaders" part that is entirely inadequate. If you care to avoid prosecutors and judges, stick to the facts, and avoid insults. We can have a discussion about facts, but yours is an ad-hominem attack. And as rebuttal of your "we already do [support unsupported software]" claim, please fix, until end 2011, in mail/procmail, in collaboration with sunpoet@: - the design flaw that with a .procmailrc that consists of a set of samples from the procmail documentation you end up with random misdeliveries and possibly bounced or lost mail in the case of write hitches on the mail spool and/or your $HOME. - all things that 3.23pre (available from the rwth-aachen mirror) fixed - all things for which there are non-cosmetic TODO's in the various documents through procmail Unless and until that happens, there's no point in arguing that we were routinely and universally filling support in for upstream maintainers.
