I'm responsible of this situation, mainly cause of the lack of
details in my commit log. If one wants to blame me, I'm fine with it
cause I committed maybe too quickly. On another hand, if I have to do
it again, I'd do it in the same manner cause the situation requested a
fast response. About one week ago or more, Robert pinged doceng
requesting this addition, one person approved the idea and then Robert
asked for help to commit. This Saturday, I read the mentioned
discussion and I had 3 possibilities:
- ignoring the discussion;
- asking Robert to go on www/doc@ and redo his request etc. (which is
quite the same as the previous point);
- committing quickly the change.
So according to the Foundation situation, to the discussion with Robert,
to the fact a new thread on www/doc@ would need another week to reach
the same solution, I committed the change. I really think everyone would
do the same, but once again I apologize for my too short and misleading
commit log.
