I'm sorry to hear your complaints after autoconf was removed from cvs.
In my opinion, you should've told your issues when the discussion
started, not after the actual work has been done. I'm open to all
opinions, and I want to spend time on investigating a possible solution.
You can read that in the mails I've sent to the list, but if I'm unaware
of an issue, I can't investigate it.

With regards,
