I'm defending my case and trying to answer everybody's concerns. I think that's something
that always happens with controversial proposals and it's definitely different than your
saying "I will always vote -1 on such a move."
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.zope.devel/9819).

It's been out there less than 24 hours. Let's not be hasty. Jim, for one, hasn't said
anything yet.

Let me refresh your memory about some contributors: Julien, Martijn, Yvo, Florent, Tres,
etc. are all Zope 3 contributors coming from a Zope 2 background. Regarding bugfixes, it
was the Five people, most notably Yvo, who made a bugfix of the X3 3.0 release line
possible.
