You know this is an unenforceable guideline? Additionally, you stated yourself that "we all know that you are [...]", implying you know his real name. Additionally, you reuploaded exactly the same patch under your own name, implying you don't think there's something wrong with it. Additionally, do you seriously _not_ understand what the problems are when you refuse to look at a patch because of the contributer's non-compliance with a non-existent guideline? Don't get me wrong, I know you work hard for this project, and as such you are in a very powerful, manager-like position. And as every such position, this requires certain softskills, including being simply nice to others and saying "thanks", "sorry" and "please" when appropriate. Certain maintainers and choices of this project sometimes seem to make in unnecessarily hard for others to contribute. I think this can be seen as a fact, simply go to one of the thousands of other open-source-projects and see how they handle things. These very frustrating obstacles include scattered resources, unusual choice of infrastructure & tools which sometimes have "ugly" interfaces, bad documentation, and mainly a general bad attitude (might have forgotten a few things here). I know you like it as it is, but I have yet to find a vim user that doesn't. This is not the kernel and you are not linus ;)
