Mail are not just from me, but about me.

Quoting the mail that supposedly quotes me:
"6.1 opportunity is gone.
 We're too late on the schedule, and noone had time to work on it, so it is wiser to target 7.0 in January"

I think it's very clear about "opportunity" and "late on the schedule" and what they mean.

You decided then it was not clear and "unsubstantiated", and therefore that my opinion had no value, so I had to expand on it.

So, I spoke about it at VDD, several time, on IRC and it refers to me on this very mailing list.

And instead of asking me to clarify, you started to say that my opinion had no value, and then attacking me.
