Why? Gentoo is about the community. Requiring a basic standard of commit |
| 17 |
quality a) reduces the number of community members who are able to |
| 18 |
contribute, 2) leads to fewer forums posts discussing how to fix |
| 19 |
problems, iii) hurts Gentoo's DistroWatch statistics by reducing the |
| 20 |
volume of commits, and fourthly, discriminates unfairly against |
| 21 |
competency-challenged developers by imposing subjective interpretations |
| 22 |
of the value of source code from a position of unearned authority. This |
| 23 |
is against the code of conduct, and is bad for the community! |
