Hi Thomas,

it's not really a problem. I'm only constantly trying to raise
awareness for this issue because it happens from time to time (you're
not the only one:)

The fundamental problem is that we as external committers can not push
to hotspot repositories - but that's another story...

So we're actually quite happy if people like you sponsor our changes -
and I hope you'll still help out in the future.

Thank you and best regards,
Volker
