Is it frustrating enough to prompt you to reach out to the package maintainer(s) through other channels (bug report, E-mail, IRC), or is that level of effort too much to ask? Note this is not meant as a rhetorical question nor a judgement. I see this sort of response crop up in multiple communities in which I participate and so am trying to understand what is an acceptable amount of investment vs what is deemed too much to bother with. Lots of established open source communities are struggling to cope with (in the opinion of many, unrealistic) expectations from incoming drive-by contributors, and it's a very tough balance to strike between existing workflows and how newcomers think free/libre open source collaboration happens. -- Jeremy Stanley -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKTBAABCgB9FiEEl65Jb8At7J/DU7LnSPmWEUNJWCkFAmigwPZfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldDk3 QUU0OTZGQzAyREVDOUZDMzUzQjJFNzQ4Rjk5NjExNDM0OTU4MjkACgkQSPmWEUNJ WCkqSg//a/pyhRfDOf9LX8fPtTbfuWBKfXeFDoSUVbQD3fbxSDry7GerKNiwc62c kw8TiZJ+l6o4ZzM5IxORhWne42eXDTTq/1R+5Xyll4MGwm+7I40VSOPgvha+kuz8 E8mRUwzLxkSiwPRMmTUaP5zOh/g2Vnr3RfK48csGZTTToyUAHu9nyA9NHL2/+P85 zSiU65/ZnkWmTDND2qynu3tBxihx/njJ05BgfLa4DrYhYitYYqR3PLBj/f54ulru +SoDzNjXm0hCh8Lk6frFtZya01ReQIrKu0TnYN8z5LxBHiGwxSBpeUEyIh0sWAhH YX/hUHwpptct4GTw/i/B8t3eQdG04cx83PM60/Z2uhZHgAULWHazmwEGTRxSN7OV WMvndRaMuLeGdBNJPLi1gqtLhMSqYZnfiIE9UkZEJtjOwiRR1ZWBb5Jrlob96jlM qzoIHqYmNTTLOpLM5Sg+Y92RMT1sV+Ol/OxencqVLk+A8fMWEiQLIqSDNXFfUYOI 3PfYHosf4IwKL+Kuvs1BSYvYEg8QaFLWKlQYTInX/zegJlatBbOAbWz280t7GVf/ l9GoYuqIA5FQI/fajfuGVLf633GhD+H9IMSmDevsOgYrvuPXflbzni9kTusDhAHq 0hciz3eWNM4onSVUdbuv+9t8KksWyWoQ2VR0RtxK3XfP3dSjlX8= =d+xO -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05 * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2) |
