Nobody has approached you about anything nor demanding anything from neither you
in particular or anyone else.

You have no idea how much research or work I have done or not done before I have
approached malining list. Don't project your BS on me.

I could actually answer your questions, at least a good deal of what you ask

I know what I have learned about those applicaitons as well as what I have
learned about you.

What discussion should I take where? I am not even discussing or even looking at
anything where I am not CC:ed, I am not subscribed to any of Emacs lists. I have
sent one mail to emacs-devel and answer those I am CC:ed to; Link to the one by
Eli you have answered to was sent to me by someone.

And there is always mobsters and lynchmob that like to give shit to other people
to feel themselves better. You should be ashamed of yourself.

The toxic atmosphere like this is why I keep myself away from the Emacs mailing
lists in general. I posted once in about a year or more and offered a patch
and regretted it. If you think I came now just to ask you to write something for
me, think twice.
