With the time you spent writing this long email alone you could have worked on either documenting Evgeniy's interfaces or trying to write test applications against kevent to validate how useful the interfaces are and if there are any problems with them. You choose to rant and complain instead of participate. Therefore, many of us cannot take you seriously.
