That much is apparent. However, that's no excuse.

Your tone of voice did. Plus, you took it on yourself to explain "how
things are done in the Postgres community".  I always use hints and Josh
Berkus as an example "how things are done in the Postgres community" and
why is the Postgres progress so slow. You have just provided me another
perfect example of the "community spirit".

If you are under impression that I want to take part in a conversation,
then you're sorely mistaken. And I have to adjust my style of writing to
make things even more clear. As for Jeff, I don't need to 'champion
him'. He did that all by himself. In his place, I would simply ignore
both this topic and you, Mr. Postgres Community.
