Hi Jambunathan,
this is very bad news - I was just starting to use your org-odt-module
and I must say that I already depend on it. It is a fine piece of work!
So, like everbody else, I wonder what went wrong? Has it to do with
the way the core development of orgmode is handled? Is there
something that could be improved?
I personally would really like to see important contribution such
as yours become more and more integrated into the 'standard'
Org ditribution - and not pushed further away.
I guess it is also natural for a project like org-mode to face
different development-related problems as it becomes bigger
and more people are involved. However, I am confident that there
is a solution somewhere (maybe we can learn something from
other larger OSS projects?).
Could you give us some feedback from your perspective?
What are the reasons for your decision?
Regards,
Thomas
