If you want things to change - hire a few of us fulltime to work on |
| 32 |
things, and you'll get the change you want. |

Until then there's no need to point out that we are lacking manpower to |
| 34 |
do large-scale changes, because that's been a constant in most |
| 35 |
opensource projects since the 1960s. |

Less talking, more doing - provide patches and stop polluting our |

mailing list with your madness. |
