People don't come up with nonsense if there's no reason for.. that for signing up and writing annoying things takes just too much time for most people (well there's one known exception). It's the internal problems this project has which reflects to the outside world. You, I and several others are also part of that problem, and at least to me it seems to be unsolvable the way it is at the moment. If you remember the words you've written a few weeks ago that you'll never ask Mauro to pull your code, but you fight for your code which you have committed earlier to the v4l-dvb project and don't accept patches which have been written by others (eg. Trent). Either you're overloaded with what you're doing or just try to take care that everything you ever touched belongs to you and noone has access to it .. I don't know.
