Next time I decide to rewrite a spell, say Firefox, I will only ask
direct stakeholders if that's a good idea. When I thus remove or break a
feature that was not used by those direct stakeholders, you would
immediately understand my concern here. Please don't try to remove
people from discussion by deciding for them if something is in their
interest or not. I looked at release notes page again, and I didn't see
any mention of who direct stakeholders are. The word "stakeholder" is
not found on any of our Wiki pages:
http://wiki.sourcemage.org/index.php?action=find&find=stakeholder
This is not a personal attack, mind you, it's not about you, it's about
the way decisions are discussed. You could have called for a discussion
publicly and nobody would show up anyway who were not interested, but I
believe that was not done.
