While I understand your point of view you should be aware that if I
continue to update things without proper testing more and more things
will break.
At some point in time I will break things you rely on and then your
unhappiness will begin.

We are a very small community and if I cannot convince more people to
help out, OI will either become outdated in more and more areas
or it will be more and more buggy. And probably both.

I didn't find the problem earlier because of how I use OI. I don't use
many things that I have been working on in the past. I will probably
stop that,
because I am running out of time. If I have to care for everything I
will not be able to do anything in the end.
