Very much so. I may be one of the volunteers Mark is referring to.
In the end it's a very long term problem that exists with a lot of open
source projects and I don't see a solution to it. When you have people who
are determined to treat others with contempt and hostility as a matter of
course, who reject even the most well-meaning offers of help with the most
pressing issues, who almost seem to make a science out of deliberate,
studied unpleasantness, something strange is going on.
More than annoying, it's weird. I've never once in my life encountered
anything like this. It's completely unnecessary, completely
self-destructive, and appears to gain nothing for anyone.
Yes, we need to use only corporate code.
What does that mean, Paul?

I'm sure of it.
And the older I get, the more sure of it I become.
