I’ve gone through the commit@ and dev@ archives to piece together exactly what
happened on the 27th.
This type of conflict is disappointing and not the Apache Way. We need to
shine a spotlight on and learn from these types of exchanges.
We have some homework to do. Everyone read this exchange in detail and with an
analytical mind:
- Look for and label the mistakes made
- Focus on the behavior and not the people
- Sleep on it, review your list, then post
- Do not +1 people’s lists, post your own
We will then have an open discussion on what is wrong with this exchange. To
my analysis I see 7 distinct issues in the exchange.

RM> Please don't publish this, it breaks existing links which is
pby sthg we don't want to do now. Pinged Ivan about it

AG> svn commit: r1800093

RM> svn commit: r1800094 (revert)

[dev@ list] (Re: TomEE Documentation)
RM> PS - cause it appeared unobvious on jira: we should try to
keep current bookmarks as much as possible cause users already
complained we changed them and it is now "done" (= we dont get
complains anymore or very rarely) so i don't feel comfortable
breaking it again

AG> Romain Manni-Bucau did you seriously just overwrite my commit?
Jun 27, 22:13
[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
RM> yep, sent a mail on the list explaining why we can't accept
this patch as that when you committed (forwarding the commit mail
to dev@) + second commit pushed build temp files (target/) which
shouldnt be.

AG> svn commit: r1800095
Jun 27, 22:18
[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
AG> You are simply unbelievable.
Jun 27, 22:19
[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
AG> This ticket is in progress, and I was working on it. How dare
you!
Jun 27, 22:20
[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
AG> What do you think the staging is for?
Jun 27, 22:20
[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
RM> ...did you notice you broke bookmarks and messed up the repo?
dont think it is being unbelievable to fix it. Also pushing a
patch without reviewing it is not good too.

[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
AG> On what planet is this acceptable?
Jun 27, 22:21
[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
AG> You are arrogant beyond belief!
Jun 27, 22:22
[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
RM> probably the same planet where ignoring a list dicussion which
is not finished (website structure) is acceptable :D
Jun 27, 22:22
RM> svn commit: r1800097 (revert)
Jun 27, 22:27
[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
AG> No Romain. This ticket was flagged, and with your usual
arrogance you just trash other peoples work. I was in the process
of reviewing it. Pushing to stage is perfectly valid. This is
simply not acceptable.
Jun 27, 22:27
[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
AG> I will be escalating this incident.
Jun 27, 22:29
[Commented] (TOMEE-2078)
AG> Thanks Ivan - This is a nice improvement
