Yes, it was a little harsh, and Don apologized.

Wrong -- Don is one of the core (or lead) developers porting the
ArsDigita Community System from Oracle to PostgreSQL -- and in order to
do this he has indeed been tracking the CVS -- and in fact he is running
the pre-beta PostgreSQL 7 right now on a site with the pre-pre-beta ACS
port to PostgreSQL running on the beta AOLserver 3.0. He also is a
major maintainer of the AOLserver driver for postgresql -- which could
be directly impacted by these changes. So, even though Don hasn't been
a heavy contributor here as yet, I believe that he has a right to let
his position be known -- although a little more gently, perhaps.
Why does he need to do this? Two words: Referential Integrity, which is
heavily used by the ACS.
I also track the current CVS -- but for a totally different reason, as I
want to be able to release RPMs of the beta release the same day as the
beta release -- thus, I am doing trial builds of RPM's against the CVS.
However, this current issue doesn't impact me in the slightest -- which
is why I have not and will not say anything about it.
