dear everyone..
i'm sorry for not having added an (IMHO) after every sentence.. but i
thought that was clear..

opinions similar to mine were already stated here by other people before
and this is certainly not the first time that someone wishes mldonkey
would have been written in something more mainstream than ocaml... but
those discussions always ended with nothing..

now i (probably) pissed off the whole mailing list with my harsh
(sensible rhetorics lacking) comment.. but as a result the discussion
has been liven up again and might be continued by people who have enough
time on hand to fork or at least release new binaries with all important
patches included..

knowing that ignoring even useful mails is the default behaviour in
every maling list i consider that enough excuse for the measures i've
taken... i hope i didn't "demotivate" someone... somehow... that's not
my ambition... those who are pissed may enjoy the advantages of
increased blood pressure and invest it into good thinking..
