Leaving the technical perspective aside, I disagree. Pushing TM4J
forward is good, but you should have tried to explain what you want to
do with TM4J. I think this is the way how Open Source works. Maybe the
new "tmdm" package is the holy grail, but you should communicate with
the other developers and the user base. How should others commit
something if they do not have a plan? There is almost no documentation
and you introduced dependencies to your libs (where is the source?).
Ignoring the user base and potentially new TM4J-developers is the
wrong way to achieve pretended progress.

Best regards,
Lars
