You didn't answer my point; a little communication to people
 that (you worded it) "do very little for Freenet" (publishers,
 users, evangelists, node operators ... and so on) would suffice. 

One mail with a right worded subject in each maillist, a couple
 of day before, was all I asked for; this was not done. 

It is difficult to admit a mistake; shut up people is easier.

Freenet is not the only way to strongly support privacy and anonimity;
 working on several project (maybe doing a little in each one...)
 I think that in this period spending my time on Freenet is not
 the best way to invest it for the cause.

I remain a strong Freenet supporter, but this doesn't imply
 accepting everything, in particular your position about the zero
 value of a Freenet community that was already destroyed in the
 past without IMHO any real need.

This is an old discussion we already had in the maillist,
 and I see no reason to move it in private email.

You, Matthew, and all coders don't need to find, or ever
 ask, a consensus, but you must have enought consideration
 of the people working in the background to just inform
 of disruptive or important changes in a correct and
 effective way.
