May I respectfully remind you that you never heeded the calls from
hackers & core alike to finish the bloddy thing for over a one year
period of time.

Your one-month deadline for coming up with either a finished 
implementation or a bit of documentation about the intentions
was gracefully extended to more than 6 months before devconf
was taken out behind the barn and shot.

I have sent you my preliminary comments on your document about
a replacement, and that is more than 3 times longer than anything
you have ever sent me on similar occasions.
