I am  surprised that you was  disappointed form lacks of  this kind of
messages.  I  can only speak  for myself -of course-  if i say  that i
never wrote  something like  that not  because i do  not care  for the
protocol, but  because i would  consider asking about why  no progress
was not made on gemini a form  of pressure that me -as maintainer of a
few  software- would  consider harmful  for the  mental health  of the
people in charge of the project.

So i learnt  today that some people consider not  getting this kind of
feedback  as  lacks of  interest  in  project  and people  behind  the
project, i am sorry for this misunderstanding.

Anyway, thank you for all your work, i just hope what happened did not
leave a sour taste.

Bye!
