I'm hoping this is just a "not your native language" thing or something, but I find this quite a bit insulting to Christian.     This is basically the second time in recent months (Aug 18th to be exact) that you've basically implied that Christian isn't a member of the community.  That is obviously extremely far from the truth.   As a member of the PMC and someone doing a TON of work to clean up Camel, he's an extremely important person in this community.   I have to give Christian a lot of credit for being too nice of a guy to respond to this.   But I'm not that nice.  :-)

Look, if no one "in the community" wanted it, Christian wouldn't be doing it.  Period.  So knock off that crap.    It's insulting to him and the rest of us that are in the community trying to solve real problems for Camel users.  I let it slide the first time, but I wasn't going to let it slide again.
