that was not expressed that way yesterday. If you write a policy make it at 
least clear enough.

hey, what did I wrong ? If sending mails to mailing list is a mistake then 
yes, kill my account. I really missed a part of "Opensource development" and 
"communities".
I just wanted to point out this situation so that people understands what a 
"commit policy" also implies.

I really know that.
I don't blame you neither kdepim guys for their (hard and good) work.
I just blame the "policy" and the way things are going on and how it can 
affect (in my opinion) development.

then blame these people ;)

I am fine with that ;)
