Curt, I think his reply stems from his frustration of chosen content in
many emails that originate from you. We all pretty well understand
postgres has a broken feature. We all understand you see zero value in
it. We're all actively attempting to determine ways to make it less
broken, if not altogether better. The fact that it's broken and you
hardly go an email reminding everyone of this fact is certainly not
making friends. In fact, one should hardly be surprised you're not
seeing more retorts as such.
For the sake of the project, I'd hope you could give the "broken" topic
a rest, move on, and allow a little time for the list to settle again.
If such abuse continues, then IMHO, it would make sense to /dev/null
him.
