I thought the whole topic should have been held off till after the CF,
probably till after the bulk of beta testing work is done.  It's a
sufficiently large and difficult problem that nobody can really give you
any meaningful feedback without taking more time away from our current
set of problems than I think is appropriate.

Now your original posts back in December were okay, since you were just
letting people know that you intended to work on this over a long
period.  But IIRC you've made more than one post with actual code in it
that you seemed to be hoping people would review, and that I thought
was a distraction at this late stage of the cycle.
