Sorry to be the bringer of bad news, but Julia is spot on. The only

Coccinelle for good.

Do you think others share this impression? Do you think this is a good
thing or a bad thing? How do you think will this situation evolve?

What do you mean with discussion contributions? Do you think that asking
if the topic is reasonable is equivalent to asking if the specific
contributions are reasonable?

Do you think you will be able to find out the answer to this question?
How could we best assist you in that?
