When I meet a maintainer in the project that stated to me "I have to

maintaining their components as a part of their job not because they
want to scratch an itch and want to!
There is a third reason for maintaining a component: it is a dependency
for another component the packager maintains. This is applicable for
_all_ packagers, be they from Red Hat or the community. You either
conveniently omitted this reason to make an argument or never thought of
it, in which case I respectfully ask you to butt out of this thread
because you do not know what you are talking about.
Oh in my case it was an "primary" component no dependency that Red
Hat maintainer could not update until he got approval but for the
You generalized one specific case to _all components of all Red Hat
maintainers_. When I rejected that generalization, you are counteracting
by claiming that my argument does not apply for that one _specific_
case. Sorry, but that is a faulty reasoning.
No i did not "generalized one specific case to _all components of all
Red Hat"
I know alot of Red Hat's employees that participate in the project by
their own free will and at their own free time.
I also know alot of Red Hat's employees that are working in the project
that go on and above their "duty" doing so.
And I also know yes granted an single individual that said he could not
update his component in the project which he maintained without asking
his "boss" before doing so which raises a whole bunch of questions but
we have saying here in Icelandic "Sjaldan er ein báran stök"
sake of your argument and concision let's lower my IQ to an rock (
which I do believe is 20 ) and say I dont have freaking flying idea
what I'm talking about.
Is this sarcasm or a personal attack? I am not quite sure...
sarcasm if any would being guilty of being stupid that would be me would
it not?
