Rubbish,
	The current process is crippling this project, limiting the developer base  
and reducing community value. Without some healthy dissent it will never 
change and get better.  I am a friend of change, a true believer in the 
process of continuous improvement. I believe one day, the WIne project will 
value my contribution - even in dissent.
