The way you quote that line it almost makes it seem like I speak in caps

I don't remember demanding anyone some changes, and after failing
inciting other users after those people.

I've complained about license issues (namely the things about qmail) and
lastly about dangerous enticing of the usage of root for tasks it should
never be used on, and even explained in detail how to do it -- for the
article in question -- in a proper way, so it is hardly whining at all.


Compare that to the behavior about questionable advantages for binary
delta patches.

Those who can participate (ie, actually help with code patches and
design) should discuss that in fedora-devel-list or other appropriate
places (like rpm-list) and not here.
