I for one had a big itch with CVS. Though I may have minor itches with
arch, there is no doubt that by creating it Tom as scratched my itch in
a major way. I would imagine there are quite a few people on this list
that agree with me on this[0] -- this is the arch-users list, after all.
I therefore think that saying Tom don't tend to scratch people's itches
is a bit unfair.
