Your mail wrongly gives the impression that the only concern I expressed
in private mails is that your opinions might sound like official
position of the release team. That's not true. My main concern is that
you are losing your time, and other people's time, by adding a lot of
noise to technical discussions. [1] is a good example of that: Holger
clearly asked for the SRMs' plans, and the first answer he got was from
... you.

If you are interested in helping Debian and/or the release team, I'm
sure that there are a lot of ways to contribute in useful ways (even
without being a DD).
