Hello,

in my wildest imagination: How can it be that a single person is 
responsible for all this??
If Sun thinks only someone on the payroll is trustworthy of doing this 
bold task, then more people should be on the payroll (here, me ... [dark 
joke]). Otherwise other ways have to be gone (see other open src projects).
Sorry, but I cannot believe this. And I apologize to that one person, as 
she / he cannot be blamed for such a scenario.

Best,
Martin
