Why should the maintainer work for free while the requester profits off free labor?

What's unreasonable is FrugalGuy's entitlement. You have to be a special type of hypocrite to accuse an open source maintainer of extortion after demanding they work for free. You can't demand things of volunteers working part time on foss projects.

You can't demand things of volunteers working part time on foss projects. In the original github comment, the corporate asked a question. Questions are not demands. He didn't say "Do this"; he _ASKED_ "When will you do this?"
