Let's try that again.  Fedora has no obligation to you; nothing entitles
you (or anyone for that matter) to push updates or even to post to this
list.  It is the prerogative of the board or others acting on their
behalf to set the direction of the project and block you from
participating in ways they believe are harmful.  Period.

Chris was suggesting that you might consider starting your own project
(which is always one's ultimate remedy in the F/OSS world), and that may
be difficult, but none of that changes the foregoing.
