I think one should recognize the fact the public edition, and feeding back from there, ranks "less than top" in Google priorities. While I am thankful this has been made public, I am getting concerned about the viability of this code base for outside projects which must rely on a working patch cycle. This suggests it may time to consider to fork a community-supported protobuf, since the current approach is a bit too dangerous for folks relying on this code base as maintained in the current style. "When we get around to it, and no, we dont merge that patch" is inadaequate for many relying on this. I'd think there's a large enough user base behind this to make such an effort viable. - Michael Haberler -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
