I honestly wonder what all the fuss is about. There are a few games |
| 4 |
I've helped with over the years and I've never had any trouble at all |
| 5 |
having my stuff reviewed and accepted. And I'm a lousy ebuild writer. |
| 6 |
Every time I'd suggest a fix, bump, or new package, and I came with an |
| 7 |
ebuild, I would get constructive criticism and I could then commit it |
| 8 |
myself. Not one single time did I get a "no". Not once. |

You had a fix and it was refused? Have you ever considered you may |
| 11 |
have been doing it wrong? I understand having to have your code |
| 12 |
reviewed and accepted sounds like an insult to a rock star like you, |
| 13 |
but that's the way it is in the real world. It is still beyond my |
| 14 |
understanding that code reviews are not mandatory for anything that is |
| 15 |
committed in Gentoo. |

Rich, if I may have a suggestion, it would be that instead of meddling |
| 18 |
with projects that have been doing their best with what they have for |
| 19 |
years, and which need praise rather than hindrance, you instead start |
| 20 |
a project to get people to think positively and accept criticism. The |
| 21 |
amount of energy that was spent in this thread and many others in pure |
| 22 |
loss could have gone a long way. |
