I'm far too lazy to revert peoples changes :)

I'll concede that in this case it was big enough to warrant reverting.
Maybe better commit messages ("this breaks compilation of anything that
depends on ecore, revert it for now") would help avoid hurting peoples
(admittedly a bit sensitive) feelings.

This project is just hobbling along with very few devs, most too busy or
too fed up with the squabbling to devote much time or effort.

So, mej, tone it down a bit (i know, its hard for you...) :)
And, caro, don't take everything so personally. Just fix what was broken
and re-commit your changes.
