(1) I am ticked off that the dicussion was not done on dev or cvs, I hope I speak for most of he people here when I say the decision to remove an extension from the ext/ directory should, no MUST, be done on dev and/or cvs so the actual extension maintainers can get wind of it. (2) There should be at least a couple days of discussion about. (3) The extension maintainer should be involved in the discussion. I do not wish msession to be moved out of the ext/ directory, and I would like a bit more discussion on the dev and cvs list PRIOR to its removal. I do not believe bugs is the correct place to have this discussion. I have put a lot of time into this system, and to be surprised like this is an outrage. I want the extension in the main tree. If people have to take extra steps to use or even know about it, they will not use it.
