At the risk of exploding this further, it looks like Nikolay put
together a really nice patch that has undergone far more testing than
what's in staging.  As we don't have a requirement on saying that a
patch is "inspired" by someone else's work I don't see any reason to
be so aggressive when this patch is clearly unique.  So, I'm sorry
your feeling left out in terms of credit, but I don't think that
attacking Nikolay is a very appropriate response.

Best,
Erich
