No one, and i mean no one reply to this email.

You will not get a single answer to any question you make. All you'll get is
counter questions. He will make questions he knows the answers for only to
read the reply in your own words. And once you reply to said questions, your
answer will be nitpicked expecting you to focus on said comments until the
conversation is fully derailed.
Insisting with your questions will be useless.

This is the guy that in a reply to the vote thread said he wasn't aware the
subject was mentioned in the IRC meeting [1] while in reality he knew well
about everything and even acknowledged it, as pointed out by Ronald in a
subsequent email [2].
He will lie and he will pretend to be unaware of things, be it to not answer
your questions or to get you to reply his, starting the cycle i mentioned
above.

This is is a guy that has since day 1 derailed every single conversation and
tried to put the aggressor as the victim and the victim as the aggressor,
installing the idea of secret unjustified feuds and invoking old bullshit like
libav's debacle in a perfect godwin's law fashion.

Not a single discussion in IRC where he was involved went anywhere, and neither
will anything in this thread. You'll get inside a spiral of bullshit with no
end until you decide to stop feeding the troll disguised as worried contributor.
