Especially since Hans has been providing strong disincentive to review of his code. Personal attacks are not exactly productive along those lines. Perhaps it might be best if the code reviewers were to work directly with Vladimir Saveliev, Alexander Zarochentcev, etc to get the issues resolved directly with minimal political posturing. Hans, no offense, but you've been trying really hard to get everybody qualified to review your code to reconsider such action. Maybe you should step back and let the programmers work out issues on their own.
