I know, and it's water under the bridge. We're people and we make mistakes
sometimes. Let's move on.

That and ample testing. I think it has been going all a bit too quick, with
the eclass(es) in flux, and so on. I'm still not convinced it's mature
enough
at this point, which is why I believe this should still be masked.

As to the discussion, I see only a few people speaking up, but obviously
you cannot be blamed for the silent majority.

But it's starting to look more and more like I'm the only one objecting
at this point. So maybe I should stop being cautious (or even cranky)
and let you guys go ahead and do your work. I do need someone to
co-maintain freetype and fontconfig then, as I am personally still not
happy with these changes and the maintenance burden they create.

I'm not saying that at all. You respond quickly. I can only commend you
on that.

But I do have doubts about long term maintainance. I know you are
more than willing to do your part, but it's simply beyond any one
person to (co-)maintain half the tree.
