You arrogance really has no bounds.  If you'd have done the job that you 
should have done in the first place and stopped that blithering idiot 16 
months ago, we wouldn't still be putting up with him now.  To top that, 
you're now defending "customers" when you should be saying quite clearly 
that PEP 404 stands as is and THERE WILL BE NO PYTHON 2.8.  Have I made 
my message perfectly clear?

And as I started this thread, I'll say what I please, throwing my toys 
out of my pram in just the same way that your pal Armin is currently doing.
