I'm hoping this kind of immature and abrasive behaviours will not
propagate (notice the plural here). Yes, when you see a package being
actively maintained by somebody else you should absolutely not touch
it without talking to that person or team first. This is probably the
single most important rule in Gentoo and I would like to thank Ben for
reminding us of it. But nobody owns anything in Gentoo. As a developer
you're not king of the hill but servant of the users. The only way to
make yourself more relevant is by doing a better job, not by barking
at the others to protect your territory. By the way folks, a better
job also involves communication and behaviour which is what we all
generally suck at.
