here we go again...

After Linus was about to commit one of my patches, it turns out the
project leaders are not willing to accept contributions under a
pseudonym. This may be normal in the GPL world, but for someone from
the Windows / BSD license world, this seems utterly bizarre. An
open-source project should be about contributions, and be as
accomodating as possible to the people it asking to contribute their
time and effort to. I have no problems following technical guidelines
- but I'm not about to compromise my personal choices for a project
that requires quality contributions to survive.
So, as the decision is apparently final I'm signing off. I guess my
various patches and WPS will either remain private, or will be
released independently at some point. Although if they're not going
to get to CVS, I don't really see the point.
I think you guys should debate whether this really is the best way to
go...
