I tried to convey in my messages that this is not an ad hominem
attack. That being said, I'm against a kind of paternalistic and
absolutist posture that you take and I'm afraid any release manager
having discretionary power would take. Consequently, I'm not against you
as Philip Brown per se, and that being said, lets move on the main issue
which is the release process as proposed in the referred document which
mandates the usage of automatic verification and validation tools based
on well defined and known policies issued by the maintainers community
consensus.
