Kurtis,
I agree with everything you said except this. IMHO, you've traded one
bad extreme (where few people care about the quality of the codebase)
for another (where the people who care about the codebase are rude and
uncooperative). You can be hard-nosed about code standards without being
a jerk.
Maybe you didn't mean it like that, but I feel like there are way too
many people in open source communities who take an "I have to be an
asshole" mantra to heart.
