I have put much time and effort in trying to make a charting solution.
I think it's bad that he is not willing at all to collaborate. He says he wants "his" code in cocoon.
Wings was based on my code. Then Keiron Liddle donated his stuff and we switched. Then JCharts became APL compatible and we switched again.
Now this guy comes up *totally irrespective* of anything that has happened. Look at the class. It loads tags from xml and feeds them in JFreeChart. And he cannot integrate with Wings. It's ridiculous.
He is not willing to collaborate in any way, and I don't like it.
As for LGPL, it's really something we should not put in our CVS.
Finally look at the patches in bugzilla. Their authors should be the ones saying the above.
You are generating waves of negative emotions on this list due to code ownership. I cannot believe this is happening again.
From where I stand, Luca (and others) had a problem for their customers, solved it in the way they found better then decided that to say something about it here. Somebody else proposed it for inclusion in CVS.
Then, later, Luca was also honest enough to admit his ego would be proud of having some of his code into the codebase.
Tell me: wasn't this *exactly* the same thing that made you stick around in the first place?
Software is *NOT* important around here, do you get it?
Human relationships are. Ask yourself if your comments made this relationship any better.
From here, with this childlish comment of yours you:
- pissed Luca, deteriorating a possible relationship with him and his colleagues
- worry other people, that might not want to donate their code because fearing of such treatment themselves.
- lowered the overall respect others have in you
- reduced the chance of collaboration with the stuff you've written
I will *NOT* tollerate any further stupid personal attack on this list. You have a ego problem? go over it or leave. I've said so on avalon-dev I'm saying the same here.
Note that this is true for *EVERYBODY*, myself included.
Moreover, I'm *very* concerned about the fact that this comment doesn't come from a newbie but from a vice-president of the foundation. Nicola is the avalon chair and Avalon suffers from these problems. Don't make me think there is a connection between the two.
Yes, I'm pissed.
And yes, I've used my two-email pattern, (you should have read the other one)
