Note that I don't claim that my leaving would stall the development. I just use my case as an example. I always consider myself of someone, who accepts a very high bar for contributing. So, if I think the the bar is too high, my thinking goes, then others will also conceive it as too high and that causes the stalling. Everyone is replaceable, I have learned that in the US. But a certain group might not as easily be. > Like it or not, merging the repository or not, you'd better get used to > the fact that Zope 2 developers are here in your community and that they > will speak up to let their interests be known.

And I try to answer Five questions on the lsits and on IRC as good as I can. I also have nothing against hearing the interest of the Zope 2 community. But I am also in a position where I must protect the interests of the Zope-3-only community as well. And in *my* opinion, in this particular case the Zope 2 community has a lot to gain at the expense of the Zope-3-only community. I have outlined my arguments for that statement in the many E-mails before.
