I admit that the libapreq2 codebase doesn't get that much review attention as
other parts of httpd and does not draw that much
developer interest. Hence we were very grateful that Yann took some time to do
the needful, fixed the security issue and took it
to a release to get that issue fixed for the users. Thank you Yann for this.
The fact that at least the existing tests still
passed after the changes was at least for me a good indicator that the changes
don't break stuff and are fine.
I also understand if you feel upset if the codebase you wrote and regard as
better was changed and if you feel that the code
deserves more love and care.
The way to fix this is to participate here in a constructive way to get it in
the direction you want it to be.
If you feel that this isn't the correct community for this codebase we can also
talk about this as Eric indicated.
I am with Joe Orton and Greg that you are around for long enough to know that
the way you started this brought attention to your
desires but was counterproductive in many ways (tone of the emails, number of
emails, top postings, too broad statements) to get
things were you want them to be.
