  > And just to make this also public: I did reply in private to you on the 
original subject (GCC support for OBJC) long before any of the discussion 
started. I was stating the actual problems and even my original offer to help 
here. But I never did get any reply on that mail.

I'm sorry I did not reply to that message.  Maybe I did not see it.  I
have not been able to answer all my messages, or even read them all,
for the past few weeks.  I read most of them, but some get left
behind.

But I took the Objective C issue seriously.  I told the GCC
maintainers that I wanted to look for volunteers to improve ObjC, and
asked them to please cooperate with installing those changes.  No
response yet.

If you read my message calmly you'll see it is calm too.  I am
responding to flames, but not with flames.  I'm trying to defend
myself in a civil tone from a defamation/intimidation campaign.

I did not compare anyone to Nazis when I said this:

> someone like me.
