You interpret something into it which isn't true. I'm not “holding” it. |
| 7 |
Publishing such unverified interpretations publically isn't exactly |
| 8 |
nice, too. It's just that I don't have time today or tomorrow to look |
| 9 |
more exactly into it, or, more exactly, I have things with higher |
| 10 |
priorities to be done first (but also Free Software related!). And as |
| 11 |
the current maintainer I just said “no” to your code (for now). There's |
| 12 |
nothing wrong with doing that if I'm not accepting it (due to whatever |
| 13 |
reason). You didn't ask to take over maintainership. |

Doing a change like this to an ebuild has to be well thought, reviewed |
| 16 |
and can't be done withing hours. netqmail is rather fragile to breakage |
| 17 |
and we don't want our users to loose e-mails due to our failures, do we? |

Now, you should correct that blog entry (I'm not going into why moving |
| 20 |
topics from MLs to blogs is very bad) to actually state true facts and |
| 21 |
then wait a few days. I'll have some time during this week. |
