Whoever answered that is wrong in many ways, let alone the pointless presonal comments, which has nothing to do on this list. The point of the two weeks delay is to give anyone a chance to get in the discussions. Many of us are not always full time monitoring the mailing lists for all possible topics. Two weeks were and are still seen as a reasonable timeframe to consider a discussion as over. Please respect it, and it is not about being too restrictive or process fanatic.
