It's been about 5 days. Can someone please either:
1. Apply this patch,
2. Give me comments on what needs to change, or
3. Advise me that I should apply for a commitbit in order
to do my OpenGL work more efficiently?
Sorry if this is coming from a frustrated place. I am trying my best to
contribute to Parrot with the time and skills I have available, and
follow all of the rules and guidelines I can find -- even getting chewed
out *twice* about procedural rules I didn't actually break -- and the
process is at this point the biggest limit on my progress. Only once
has one of my patches gotten a quick response, and the person who was
kind enough to eventually commit said patch got barked at for doing so.
Certain committers have pointed out that people who have not contributed
anything to Parrot have no right to complain about slow progress. I am
contributing, or at least I'm really trying to. Consider this my
complaint: This is a suboptimal way to treat people who want to donate
their time and energy to this project, and it slows down project
progress to boot.
