I refuse to accept that if someone twists my words I should not correct
that. If that's called bikeshedding, I will be the biggest fan of
bikeshedding from now on.

I gave my personal understanding of what the list was supposed to be, I
made a wrong assumption when the list was created, and I indicated this
could be the case for more people. I know the real purpose of this list for
quite some time already. We ran into some questions while preparing the
systems and we felt that another decision (if you think one was already
made, which some people doubt) could lead to a better setup.

We gave an advise, and I personally hope we can all stop attacking the
messengers and the timing and look at the document and discuss the problems
it addresses.

Best,
