Looking at traffic going both ways I don't think it was meant harshly or etc. More a surprise to the current maintainer. That they weren't contacted to get their feedback on something they are directly responsible for. Before going over their heads or around the bush to get opinions from others. I don't think it was intentionally done. But usually, not sure if it's stated in policy, it's best to try to contact a maintainer first, directly. If one exists, if not the someone maintaining the herd then. Discussing and ideas, thoughts, issues, etc there. Then based on that, elevate the conversation to say -dev ml or etc for all to be involved. I am sure lots of us have lots of ideas about allot of packages. But only a few of us take enough time to commit to being a packages maintainer. Those willing to put their neck on the line should be the first stop, IMHO. Simple misunderstanding miss-communication. :) -- William L. Thomson Jr. Gentoo/Java
