You interpret something into it which isn't true. I'm not “holding” it.
Publishing such unverified interpretations publically isn't exactly
nice, too. It's just that I don't have time today or tomorrow to look
more exactly into it, or, more exactly, I have things with higher
priorities to be done first (but also Free Software related!). And as
the current maintainer I just said “no” to your code (for now). There's
nothing wrong with doing that if I'm not accepting it (due to whatever
reason). You didn't ask to take over maintainership.

Doing a change like this to an ebuild has to be well thought, reviewed
and can't be done withing hours. netqmail is rather fragile to breakage
and we don't want our users to loose e-mails due to our failures, do we?

Now, you should correct that blog entry (I'm not going into why moving
topics from MLs to blogs is very bad) to actually state true facts and
then wait a few days. I'll have some time during this week.

Greets,
Michael
