I wonder who might have attempted to do that in your view. In reality have I have never attempted to do anything remotely close to that. > Also, if some contributors get too annoying to be worth our time > interacting with, it is OK to ignore them. But do you have a valid reason? Or is it just petty personal animus? Talk is cheap. Code is what speaks. I'm doing valid, useful, and substantial code. It is the project that suffers from ignoring it. Ignore me all you want, but the code doesn't stop being valid. https://lore.kernel.org/git/20210618203057.790320-1-felipe.contreras@gmail.com https://lore.kernel.org/git/20210618215231.796592-1-felipe.contreras@gmail.com -- Felipe Contreras
