Andrei,

For whatever reason it seems that Gonzalo never got any message from you 
about his PBI being removed, it just disappeared without warning. I 
think we all need to have a discussion about this in -core, to figure 
out one and for all what the policy should be on this sort of action. 
I'll get the party started over there :P
