Me too. But I'm not surprised.
I didn't have a list, I'm glad someone went through and made one.
Yes, he might have handled his departure from the team differently, but I found
the entire discussion about changing the team policy on setting the maintainer
very off putting. I haven't talked to him about it beyond making sure he was
aware of the discussion, so I don't know why he handled it the way he did, but
I can easily imagine he was quite frustrated.
Frankly, I think statements like the above aren't particularly consistent with
the project CoC and have me thinking again about if this is the kind of team I
care to be involved with.
Which part? The one where I am saying that I'm not surprised? That in no
way should be taken badly, or as an attack on him. Let me explain then.
I too, would prefer if Sandro didn't leave, even if I had difficult
moments when communicating with him. I stated it already, I did
appreciate his contribution to the team, and to the project at large.
Though it's a fact that I was not surprised, because you mentioned it.
We knew in advance it could happen. Looking backward, it seems it was
inevitable, unfortunately.
I'd be very sad to see you go as well, please stay.
While the way he left the team is on him, the fact that it even came up is 100%
on the people pushing this change.
I do not agree. It came up because what it was generating (frustration,
flames about "rogue uploads", you name it...) had to be addressed.
