Any chance there might be an agenda? Dunno. _Your_ agenda seems to be "attack other maintainers so much that you can later claim they are biased".

Aha, maybe because you keep attacking him all the time. Or maybe because your code is not up to the kernel standards. You want to claim it is the former, but it really looks like the latter. Just stop doing that. You are not creating nice atmosphere and you are not getting tux3 being merged in any way.
