My 2 cents is that, usually, when discussion starts about a topic, or a specific parts of code, you should remove irrelevant text, and substitute by a "<snip>" line, just to give reference that some irrelevant text used to be there... so if you're interested, just jump to the mailing list archive, and look it out for yourself. Also, this is completely off topic, and has nothing to do with the original patch subject. Therefore a proper subject rename must happen. If you want to take this topic further, please figure it out between you two And, if necessary, the list maintainer, allright?
