There is nothing here to discuss. Indeed. And on top of that, the attitude is extremely unkind to Nick. I think Nick did a very good job[1] by introducing a feature that was awaiting a volunteer for years (and continually contributes to GDB on related issues). In any case, bashing a volunteer for donating useful code is a bad mantra; if someone thinks the code isn't good enough, they are free to do better. [1] I know people with a generally anti-Emacs orientation who, after being shown "M-x gdba", told me that this single feature might convince them to start using Emacs.
