I'm expected to be flamed for getting in the way, but whatever. To me this decision lacks any kind of consideration toward who will be affected. This will hit those that makes the new features and are working hard to convince their customers to go mainline first. None of Mauro or Hans will truly be affected by this. Everyone affected by this decision were completely unaware of the problem in the first place and could not help it. Punishment and shame is not something I encourage or think is nice in general. Its the reflection of a strong frustration and the spontaneous need to hit somewhere it hurts. It brings no benefit to anyone and likely convince the skeptical to go away. In the end, it is the leaf contributors (the one that have the least authority on the project) that takes the hit, having to tell their customers they'll only get their stuff mainline in 6.7 even though they might have done everything right to get things on time for the next window. This kind of methods is purely negative for everyone, there is no win of any sort. regards, Nicolas
