I don't think that threats to leave and portrayals of utter doom are a 
fair way to discuss this, Stephan. I must say I find it extremely ironic 
to hear from you that stalling Zope 3 for several months is a death blow 
to Zope 3 -- where was this sentiment in the past? :)

Like it or not, merging the repository or not, you'd better get used to 
the fact that Zope 2 developers are here in your community and that they 
will speak up to let their interests be known. It's in your interest to 
make us happy, actually, as we're working to make Zope 3 a better 
community and a better system.
