I will drop off this thread after this post, as it seems that things are working toward a solution.
I indeed hope for a solution soon. Too much time has been wasted already, rather than working productively, so if we really would move towards a solution, I'd applaud that.
I would suggest though that it is rather frustrating to see all of this ink and blood spilt over what seems to be a misunderstanding.
Well, if I recall, my initial proposal has been to simply keep things as is, with the existing list, the contacts on it, and the way things worked. I was told that this does not fit to the Apache way and does not work, that separate lists are required and so on and so on. I was proposing the easiest way in the beginning, it was not desired for some formal/philosophical/whatever reason.
I tried again this time with proposing a neutral, trustworthy third-party to host things, hoping this will be accepted by all parties. Let's see how this turns out.
