20 I might, but before working on something it has to be discussed first.
21 I won't put effort into something without knowing if it's for nothing
22 (e.g. maintainer disagreement or refusing patches because of coding
23 style).
24
25 So yes, complaining helps to make clear what we want. Every bug report
26 is in fact a complaint.

28 There is no rush from my side since I still use the old eclass. I was
29 just confused of your way to move this through which did not make
30 clear if you even think of reintroducing it since you said "I don't
31 feel like maintaining the extra code is worth the effort" and did not
32 respond to ulm's and my comment.
