No and no. You were unhappy with my last patches, so this time I first
send an email asking how to do it prevent sending something which would
be rejected. And now you are saying that it is a technical problem, not
answer. Nice way how to demotivate to try to do any new contribution
into this project area.

Yes, after half o year? And I should continue to wait another half year
for another round? Why? And why should I wait again? Demotivate?

Seems that you just want to demotivate, nothing more.
