My intention was to provide a solution to silence the complain.
Stand corrected. I didn't ask for your blessing/permisson first.

Again my apology.

Sorry that I make you feel angry.> > All I'm asking for is that all of you *think* about what you do.> If you're frustrated about the next release not arriving, do> something to move it forward - i.e. grab the current source-trunk> from the Subversion archive, use it and send bug reports.

I am not frustrated of "next realease not coming". I was hoping
to answer the question of why not putting all-in-one patche into a source tree
to relieve the patching headaches.
 
again My apology to create this tension due to my bad judgement.
 
effort should really spend on docs,patche and bug reports.
