I dislike such posts.
Since mostly an issue is nothing but.
Even if it won't get fixed (directly).
Also some people in Open Source are akward. They tell me that they have limited resources in their project and they can't fix it or won't fix it or whatever. They don't even think that I could try to fix my own issue. They better start a conversation that they have too less people and that this particular issue will be closed. They don't even care if you've done some open source contributions already (even minor one's) on another project / language.
It's like some people just don't want your help, even if they told you.
- Hondor 10y agoIsn't that why Github has forking? If people recognize that you'll accept more updates to your fork than the original, then maybe your will become the defacto proper one. If not, at least you fixed it for yourself and all your friends who trust you. If you don't like that you'll then have to include the original author's future changes in yours, then, well, you're doing just what he was - not wanting to spend time managing other people's things.
- ilaksh 10y agoNot sure what you are saying but next time make a pull request that includes good test coverage. Even then though, if they don't have time to test it themselves in another project then they could end up breaking a lot of people's projects down the line. So they might not have the time to test and so can't even merge a PR.
