My argument was/is "We have a good experience with Gallery2 at
coccinella.im and it might be worth looking at for jabber.org too...no
discussion needed."

To get maybe a bit harsh; I really don't like this endless "government
style" arguing about whether or not a feature is needed. I prefer the
"business style" way to actually *do* things instead of long
discussions that lead nowhere. With just *doing* things and then
fixing bugs you introduced this way the website will have a bigger
organic growth than with endless discussions. Ok, that was another
point I wanted to make...there is no need to discuss about this
whether or not you agree or not...reason: discussing about this has no
value at all for the jabber.org website :-)
