Suppose what you're saying were true. Why would then this buunguyen respond to the GH issue in this way? Why go on the offensive, calling people trolls? Why lie about having rewritten the code? If what you say is true, he could simply say so.
This is not the behavior of an innocent person respecting the software's license. It's the behavior of a very guilty person. Or a clown. Or both.
- mehrdadn 6y agoI don't know, I don't think either is impossible, but let's say they are guilty. I repeat my question: how does anyone here know the contributors aren't fine with this regardless (maybe they don't feel their contributions were minor enough not to justify casting a spotlight on them, raising a public feud over a trivial issue, and cancelling this guy)? How does everyone here somehow know the contributors want vigilante justice? It's as if we're trying to play out https://xkcd.com/386/ https://xkcd.com/386/ except we're replacing "wrong" with "violating someone else's copyright"...
- totony 6y agoA deleted comment in the github issue was a contributor stating that they didn't know but didn't care. It's fair for people to not like this because the contributors were not made aware of this. Thus the only people who were wronged did not even know of it.
- Dylan16807 6y ago> maybe they don't feel their contributions were minor enough not to justify casting a spotlight on them, raising a public feud over a trivial issue That sounds like bullying. That wouldn't be okay either. Even if they would actually be fine with it, a ticket saying "ask them!" is a valid issue.
