Hi Jay,

I am sorry you feel that way. I still remember when you and Marc invited 
me to leave rdesktop and join FreeRDP because rdesktop was controlled by 
Cendio and refused any architetural changes even they were useful or 
necessary. And Marc said FreeRDP would be much more open. This has been 
true until now, and I believe it will be always true in the project. I 
really don't feel it has been taken over by any group of people like 
Cendio in any way - anybody from anywhere are still always welcome to 
contribute, I am sure Marc agrees.

Regarding the topic: yes lack of stable release control is an issue. 
Often when I merged master in order to use some new feature I would also 
have all kinds of problems, but I usually just fix them myself, and 
enjoy the new codes instead of complaining... Marc has made the point, 
stable release control requires a lot of manpower, and it's even more 
difficult for such a fast-evolving technology.

Speaking of architetural changes, sometimes you don't see benefits of 
something when you are not using it yet. I was also skeptical about 
WinPR, felt it was way too much effort for little value, until when I 
moved to cross-platform development I saw the idea behind and the 
advantages, and even start to contribute to it.

Let's stay a healthy community and not let such differences ruin us. I 
am sure a solution will eventually come out, and we should focus on 
working on solutions instead of falling apart.

Thanks,

Vic
