I'm not sure where that came from and there is no need to deviate from
the technical issues at hand. There is nothing here that is controversial
and we should stick to the facts of the issue(s) in order to bring a
speedy solution to the table.

There is nothing exclusive to Arabeyes - Mohammed do please refrain from
such tone. If the point needs to be made then make it strictly on the
merits of the technical issues and nothing else. As noted nothing is
controversial here (beyond technical direction) and we simply need to
see how best to proceed both short-term and long-term.
