It's not me who is generalizing his own opinion/preferneces on others. I 
never said everyone should be contributing code.

My point is still that you are pretending to know more about the opinion 
of the user base while you did less to query it. You pretend your opinion 
is everyone else's opinion.

You are not interested in a specific fork or feature - that's fine. Using 
this one fact claiming nobody else is interested either, in a subthread 
you started to complain about inproductive list traffic looks like a 
contradiction to me. Sorry, but with this strategy you are contributing 
noise only.
