I am more than willing to listen to TU, as well as any other users.

As what you said is all opinion, it is hard for me to reply. But let me
try.

If you referring to that I top-posted before, I already apologized.
Also a fun fact, I have been top-posting in my whole life, and I never
saw a non-top-posting email in the past two decades in USA. Further it
was very hard to read non-top-post emails on phone, at least for me for
now. Or if you think I am harassing the new maintainer, please show me
what words are harassment, I am happy to apologize and modify it. At
least I didn't call anybody "zero knowledge", or "know nothing", etc,
did I?

Please shed some light on  what I or any other AUR maintainers who
didn't register AUR-general should do in this case, before the package
was taken over.

If it is I should always reply comment, that's a very high bar, at
least for me, especially if I see a simple patch file is split into
many small files.

Best,
Manhong
