@Stefan: It was not clear to me that your intention was to only re-write
the resource implementation.
My biggest problem in the whole situation was the lack of communication
as I did not know what your plans were or rather how you want to proceed.

Yes, you told me that the splitting was unnecessary, to which I replied
that I see my error during the design of the new resource implementation
but that the current design works as well and a redesign would not be
worth the effort. That was the full extend of the conversation. I did
not know that this was still an issue for you, otherwise I would have
been happy to discuss it with you and do the re-design myself
(admittedly with a few weeks of delay as I do not have the time right
now). And even if you wanted to do it yourself, it would have been nice
to talk about it with me beforehand.

We discussed that I can just add further patches to the 'big patch'.
This did address my concern on how to work while the integration of the
big patch is still ongoing (which probably won't be an issue any more),
but I was still not sure how the rest of the integration was going to
proceed. Your actions and comments left me under the impression that you
were going to integrate (and adjust) the entire patch yourself.

My main concerns with this issue are how we are going to proceed and how
we can improve our communication to avoid something like this in the future.
