On the 7th I was talking about gpm, as I've been following the NMU
campaign and I was aware that gpm needed an update, it has just not been
urgent. Granted I cannot expect you to read my mind given that I
missed the important detail to mention gpm explicitely, I suppose I was
really tired that day. But, we talked about this on the 11th and the
16th anyway.

I don't see why, we could just take a look at those changes and upload
them with the new translations and stuff. So I don't get either the
reason to get into the initial comment's tone...
