Actually, I am trying to not to accuse anybody of anything and not to
point fingers.  I know that you are very active within Debian and I
appreciate the work you do.  The same is true for many contributors.

I just meant there must be a reason if many people say: "I didn't now
you needed help."  Appearently you and others were unsuccessful in
conveying the message that you do need help.

And I was trying to promote the idea to use a central and permanently
visible platform for such help requests (the RFH list).

And I don't mean at all to say: "Blame yourself for not getting help
because you didn't send in a RFH!"
