Nope. What Thorsten describes looks pretty bad IMO, so I want to know 
what is going on. Otherwise, this shouldn't have been posted at all. No 
need to keep the dust under the carpet. And if Thorsten doesn't want to 
go public with it - he should post on pmc@i.a.o. Talking about the 
issue doesn't have anything to do with forwarding private mails to 
public/private lists.

I don't see how speaking factually rather than conceptually would 
change showing how we care about it.

I will not vote on policy which makes no sense or is based on unproven 
facts from the past.

I don't think so and they are appreciated. But I'm not sure this will 
lead us anywhere if Thorsten doesn't speak factually. I've quite had it 
with the amount of FUD mails making waves on various Apache lists.
