Please accept my humble admiration.

True leaders lead by following and don't really care who is leading, as long
as the goal is attained.

I know damn sure that if I had won 6/49 or 7/49 it would be none of anyone's
business to tell me which casino should I burn my money there; I still can't
help not to feel sick in my gut when limited available resource for work
related to Squeak are spent elsewhere for "me too" projects that are too
late, too little with a big DOA  clearly inscribed in Nostradamus' quatrains
;-)

It's good to know that 3.10 release team is taking all the time it needs to
look at the core issues instead of shoving out sugar coated YARAD ;-) 


Oops, self imposed quota for trolling here is already used up ;-)

I am looking forward to release 3.11/4.

Cheers,

PhiHo.
