This discussion on -devel is quite useless and contra productive for
everyone involved.

There is currently discussion ongoing about how to move forward, though
due to the complex nature of the current situation (where also lots of
FUD etc is on the lists), it is being dealt in private.

The DPL was already contacted and is informed about the progress of the
private discussions.

Before there is a real break through where everyone involved has got the
chance to react on proposals and hopefully agree on a way forward, there
won't be much disclosed.

I would rather not have sent this mail as some seem to try to block any
solution, though I'm sick of all the FUD and useless discussion and hope
that this will put things in perspective.

Please reply in private.

Cheers

Luk
