Yes, I understand, but when one mailing list member is holding up progress by providing only negative, non-constructive feedback and even admits that his own branch of the thread has ceased to be useful, it is important to be able to let the other members of the community have a say. This was the only way to stop unnecessary bickering from going on without end. As long as people are contributing helpful feedback and are attempting to further the discussion and help make proposals on how to fix problems, instead of just making negative comments on how people work, then that feedback is welcome.
