Why is it difficult for you to understand what I wrote? I wrote again:

I stopped working on IET but it doesn't mean that I force others to
stop working on IET.

Nobody asked me to give a right to merge patches to IET. When Arne
asked me, I was happy to give it him because he has a good knowledge
of IET code.

Probably, near zero because I stopped working on IET. What does 'stop
working on something' mean for you?

Several days ago on the mailing list, I saw that Ross works on IET
with Arne.


I have no idea why you think that you know better than me about the
project that I had maintained. But can you please stop talking about
wrong information? I can just ignore your wrong statements (I often
did) but I don't like to see other people misunderstanding.

Thanks,
