What did You *act* to get it there?

Whom do You ask? This question is one You should ask yourself: Why
haven't *You* approached to do so?

indeed! *You* did notice that issue and what was *Your* action?

Again: whom do You accuse? Who should act, if not You?

An Open Source Software community is a place to *act* rather than
complain.
