Hi Pedro, I think you confuse blackmailing with something much simpler and pragmatic. One needs to asses how things work in your project for real before investing too much time. Adrian was contemplating the fact that none writes code, so I had some code at the hand with with I can see how things work around here. You want it, good. You don't want it, its also good. You want to trash it… also good. Its all the same to me. This process is aimed to give me an idea , if your workflow works for me. > you discuss your idea and try to get some consensus in the lists/IRC/conferences. I am not particularly interested in promoting ideas and gathering consensus. I am not a politician. I happen to believe that translating some utilities from the base to libraries is a very valuable addition to the project. Id rather spend time with my familty and walk around the city in nature with my GSD dog than embarking on some twisted political campaign. > We are particularly NOT interested in code where the original contributor will walk > away as soon as he/she receives criticism or has plans that do not match ours.
