I get it that the goal is to release PostgreSQL 14 and I also get it
that nobody is interested in the reasons for my slow reaction. I even,
at least to an extend, understand why nobody tried reaching out to me
directly. However, what I cannot understand at all is the tone of this
email. Is this the new way of communication in the PostgreSQL project?
Just to be more precise, I find it highly offensive that you address an
email only to me (everyone else was on CC) and yet do not even try to
talk to me, but instead talk about me as a third person. I find this
very disrespectful.
Michael
