No problem. I think I used the wrong wording. I didn't mean to blame 
anyone or even imply that if someone voted in the poll he has to try my 
stuff.

I only tried to share my observation about the general lack of user 
activity that I think affects all forks (including the mainline). I also 
tried to propose my idea of a no-compile package (an idea that may benefit 
mainline pcb as well). Too bad the whole thread got derailed.
