  What I dislike is that I have the impression that instead of discussing
  these issues with everyone on the list, you silently prepared the packages
  with Gregor. You came up with your version of packages as if nothing
  happened. Talking to Neil would have avoided that he works on this
  for nothing. I'm disappointed.
