| Ciaranm's original e-mail mostly comes under the heading of

Actually, it came under the heading of "covering my ass so that when the
inevitable complaint makes its way to devrel, I have something to point
to to show that I didn't just commit the thing without asking first".
The trolling was just an incidental side effect thrown in to liven up
what would otherwise be an extremely boring thread.
