Did you ever try to speak to Daniel directly? I tried it once (on
IRC), and got immediate reply from him. So, please don't accuse Daniel
until you have massive negative experiences with him personally.
Daniel, please keep your open mind.
I can really understand the level of frustration of the amd64-team -
but, it doesn't help at all if the outcome of a discussion is to
frustrate not only the amd64-people, but also e.g. the ftp-masters
even more.
Cheers,
Andi
