Thank you Robert. I have taken your clarification to heart. It will no
doubt be useful in the upcoming review of Boost.MySQL, which is likely
to be _a lot more controversial_.

I do understand that not all votes have equal weight. I was careful to
judge the reasoning behind the stated conditions, and took note of the
back-and-forth on the list during the ten days.

I fully agree with regard to the committee. It has been nothing but a
cause of frustration and anger for the community of developers who
actually use C++ to get work done. I have the strong impression that
very few on the committee ever produce anything of strategic value for
their employers.
