I think that what everyone is trying to explain you is that this is not by
always telling the same story on different mailing lists that you will solve
this problem. I understand that you can't let this go as if nothing happened,
because there have been mistakes from both sides, and that you have been the
only one to be punished, and this is not fair.

If this is a problem with Frans Pop or anyone else, why don't you talk with him
? Because he doesn't want to ? So, what's the point of telling it to every
Debian user ? What could we do to that, as simple Debian user ? Launch a
petition ? Start a revolution ? Fork Debian ? The thing is, many users don't see
the point in being told this story again and again, as this only annoys them,
discredits you, and make the one who want you out of Debian laugh.

So please, find another way to solve this, as I don't think this method has
given any positive result for now. I don't know what to do, but as you saw on
this list, a lot of people are with you, and think that you are too much
important for the ppc port to be lost. Just try to change the way you fix your
relational problem with the other DDs.
