The maintainer still shouldn't dismiss a patch + test case with "it's boring".
- wvenable 7y agoWhy not? The only reason I work on personal open source projects is because it's interesting to me. Otherwise, why would I bother?
- mratsim 7y agoHe can reject the patch. But the tone is important as well. And that was that "it's boring" reply that triggered an angry response from a passerby about "you shouldn't write libraries" (or something in vein).
- Izkata 7y agoHe didn't. From what I can tell from reconstructed logs posted elsewhere here, he rejected a proof-of-concept the poster suggested someone else continue with.
