Honestly this is really common. What’s unusual is that the responder is allowed to say he’s prevented. Normally absolutely everything is NDAd. I don’t think maintainers necessarily appreciate how often when they speak to someone about an issue but the person they’re talking to keeps avoiding doing a specific thing they were asked to do to help resolve it that they can’t, and can’t even say that they can’t.
- compsciphd 5y agothe question is, should those people be using open source software and reporting bugs if they can't be part of the solution to resolve it?
- moomin 5y agoI mean, define “should”. It’s not exactly their decision to not contribute back, and it’s often not their decision to use the software either.
