imho: my favorite on this topics: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Nonviolent_Communication and according to my experience - moralistic judgments and diagnoses can't help solve the problems. on the other hand, Empathy ( for the project ) can be very powerful. And If you want to understand the other side, read this: "Why I didn’t fix your bug" http://magnusmanske.de/wordpress/?p=518 so "Be nice" and give a positive surprise ( for example add a picture of a cute animal for your issue; example: https://github.com/moby/moby/ pull/36630 ) disclaimer: - I have 1 accepted contributions: https://github.com/openstreetmap/ Nominatim/pull/690 Regards, Imre 2018-03-26 12:43 GMT+02:00 cm-sani...@wp.pl <cm-sani...@wp.pl>: > Hi, > Some time ago on this mailing list I expressed concern about the way > Nominatim is being maintained.
