Why not? It was just a question, because I don't understand why everyone
(from digium) is saying that the addons must be fixed, but I see the problem 
in the asterisk trunk. That's all I'm saying... for the third time now.

Yes, sure. I don't doubt that. And I personally thank you for all that work. 
I would like to join development if I wouldn't need to disclaim.

I work for 'addons' too. chan-capi.org in my case. So I'm not just sitting 
back.
And again, I just wanted to point out, that the current trunk is the 
problem which prevents other modules from build. But this seems to be 
ignored, because the respond is always: the addons must be fixed.
That's all.
