Andrew, it wasn't dismissive and wasn't really triggered by your reply. Now
reading the first sentence of my reply below I can see why it could be
considered dismissive. But may be I deserved a bit of benefit of a doubt?

that list, which is already publicly available. You made the same referral to
the dev@hbase, except that I have actually provided the links ;)
