A bunch of new faces hoping to contribute just watched you walk up to the project and get code in. You contributed to their excitement immensely!
Not only that but people tend to be afraid of contributing something "simple", feeling it would be unwelcome or in some way "measure" them as not being a good developer, so they grab a hard task and struggle. The reality is we and all open source projects are usually buried under simple tasks not done and that work is incredibly welcome. It's actually *very* excellent you contributed what you did, because it was needed, does help, and there are many other modules that still need the same love. In short, thank you immensely, David! -- David Blevins http://twitter.com/dblevins http://www.tomitribe.com > On Dec 4, 2018, at 3:25 AM, David R.
