Well we have dozends of people complaining about you, and a small number
who think your contributions outweight the damage you do. But we have
none, not one complaining about aurel, reimar, roberto, me, alban, ...
diego complained about ivan and arpi in the past, though both of them
have contributed much more than you did so far.
