Excuse me Garret, but committing stuff to the trunk inherently feels
wrong to me, so don't even get me started. But I for one, have no
choice.

Second. I have been helping the people working on the java patch to make
sure it compiles under Mandrake. Surely you could reconsider your harsh
words and your JUDGEMENTS in light of the fact that you yourself
neglected to read why this thing was being worked on in the first place?

Third, we don't have a production branch. Everyone got upset just
because I wanted to create a branch to test RPMs in and now you're going
to beat me over the head with this one?

I don't really find your implications fair in the least.
