I am going to side with jhb here.  Your commonly-relied-upon tactic
of "making demands" has become utterly tiresome.  

Not only are you yourself, as an individual contributor, in no position
to make demands: making demands has no place in a cooperative volunteer
project such as this, whatsoever.

If that was the way things worked in the old days, well, then that was
a Bug, not a Feature.

I personally gave up attempting to work with you years ago.  I only
type these keystrokes in the hope that *something* might change.

I offer this *regardless* of whether I agree with what you said, or not.
