Apologies if I offended. I'm just getting back into Apache, and I'm used to
working in company git environments where people are less concerned about
individual credit than about whether the improvement gets made, so I may be a
bit fast on the gun in trying to simplify our backlog, and in closing before
consensus is reached. Objection accepted, I'll try to be more careful about
that.

Subject: Re: [apache/xalan-java] Remove non-existent provider from
META-INF/services (PR #1)
I suggest reconsidering and merging the suggestion instead. It would result
in showing carlosame among the contributors (e.g.
https://github.com/apache/xalan-java/graphs/contributors ), and it would
encourage the others.
Thank you for your comment, however yesterday after this PR was closed I
removed my Xalan fork and I'd rather not redo the work.
Moreover I have no interest in having my name associated with Apache Xalan.
I watched how 2.7.3 directly included the BCEL packages despite my warn about
split packages (modular JDKs will reject Xalan if BCEL happens to be also in
the modulepath). Then how your PR was ignored "because we do not need CI now"
despite it offering other improvements, and then for example a more quirky
alternative for test execution being merged instead. Etc... you just have to
read the mailing list discussions.
I do not think that giving negative opinions on other open source projects
is desirable, however I'm puzzled to see how the ASF keeps pushing Github as a
way to get more contributions to their projects but then it continues with "The
Apache Way" as described above. I wonder how many other people are going to get
their time wasted due to this.
