Sorry, I don't have a clear answer here. On IRC Fawzi mentioned exactly
that "tango is still better than druntime".

Here I've based my words on a chat with Lars, but it might be that you
being so busy was misinterpreted as not willing to communicate and
"acting a bit weird". It might be hard to get it out of him now, as he
seems to have given up on NG discussions :(
Now it looks like I'm warmongering... Merely trying to get some parts of
the community to talk with each other, because there are lots of
misunderstandings and perhaps communications barriers in the air.
