Ehm, I did not see a request to revert any of the deletions.
There have been two issues (openssl and docbook-sgml-dtd, and both
have been reverted in 16 hrs or so. (and later on one or two other
deletions have been reverted on request of the recipe owners, but
these did not cause any breakage afaik).
So I really don't know what fallout you are dealing with.
And my deletions were not exactly jumbo patches and were very easy to
revert if needed.

And as I already wrote before: dev head is bleeding edge, so sometimes
things go wrong. Can happen. No big deal if resolved quickly. That is
the risk of living on the edge. If you can't live with that use the
stable branch or create your own branch where you are in full control.
The root cause is that you do what can be considered production work
on dev head. Most seasoned software engineers will agree that that is
not very wise and

BTW apparently your perception on my work apparently is a minority
viewpoint. If I recall correctly two people complained to me and at
least 5 mentioned to me that they appreciated my activity.

Frans.
