You want to say literally all? I mean, some of the points were rather suggestions or minor requests (at least I felt so) or had no
clear conclusion, e.g. "seralization" or "rename bounded_int", to name a few. For some of them I don't see how I could address them
in documentation or why should they be crucial for final acceptance (don't get me wrong - I'm open for suggestions, but for instance
if I were to add all the examples suggested by people to the docs, it would become too bloated and out of topic. A software
maintainer can't do everything to please anybody but has to choose which requests to implement and which not to). To conclude - I
don't feel section 3 contains only major issues, so should all of them be crucial for acceptance?
Best regards,
Robert
