You are _not_ the only person involved here.

It is _not_ clear that the other GWindows developers "have no
objections" to changing the project from "Windows only" to
"multi-platform".

I was following a process of getting consensus from the interested
GWindows developers/users.

It is disappointing to have you ignore that process and proceed
without consensus.

This action will make it very difficult for me to join this project.

Please not that I am not disappointed that this is not "my project";
that was never my intent. I am disappointed that the project will be
managed by individual decisions, rather than group consensus.

I hope you will be more considerate in the future.

Your actions speak otherwise.

I hope this is true.
