Not on this project, that's true. I would though - it's people like you who 
make me feel so very welcome.

Help! I'm defenseless against your superiour argumentation skills!

Look, I've just spent over a week doing nothing but CVS conversions and SVN 
cleanups. I know _exactly_ how tedious and boring the task is. How about just 
stating what you just said in a polite manner, instead of assaulting me for 
making a suggestion? 

It's not like I wouldn't understand that your decision is final, and you don't 
want to dicuss it anymore. However, when your basic argument is "I don't want 
suggestions, and you're an idiot", I find it hard not to take offense.

(I'd still like to know why you think what I said was "clueless or wrong")
