> Wow. I'm not even sure that would be polite to say to a junior engineer (that may be presumed to not know concurrency) than a very senior one here. I don't understand your ideas of politeness, but if someone offered me help/advice in writing code in any area, no matter how "senior" or "junior" I am or he/she who is offering help is, I would be grateful. > I think you know full well that Ilan doesn't need your help writing concurrent code. Yet why would you offer help? I think this is a false offer (you know Ilan will not take you up on this); -- it's a pejorative offer that belittles who you offer it to as being beneath the abilities of your own. I wonder why you would say that? Maybe you don't believe it's worth it to make it easier for plugin writers at the expense of Solr having such concurrent code (i.e. where does the concurrency/complexity go) -- fare, but then just say that without belittling anyone's intelligence. Ilan is a reasonably new committer, so I am not fully aware of his background or his "seniority". I just offered help in writing concurrent code that I consider clean. But, now you have made couple of assertions that I will keep in mind: "Ilan doesn't need your help writing concurrent code" "Ilan will not take you up on this" > "pejorative offer that belittles who you offer it" > "as being beneath the abilities of your own" > "belittling [..] intelligence" Even though I won't stop you representing/misrepresenting Ilan as you have done above (by claiming he is not open to help in this area), at least please don't put misrepresent me with the motives behind my words. Just to clarify: I thought Ilan was inclined towards having tons of classes (and thereby "polluting solr-core") because he wanted to avoid having the plugins make concurrent requests, since I thought he perceived doing so as complicated. I am of course not doubting anyone's ability to write concurrent code (and of course not "belittling anyone's intelligence"), but I wanted to offer suggestions on doing so *cleanly* (without complications). ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
