This is just uncalled for. I'm sure you can express what you mean
without pointlessly and wrongly insulting the *reason we have this
language,* a person who put more than twenty years of their life into
this project.
Agreed.
It's totally OK to criticize, but one should do it in a constructive way
Temtaime said that Walter is setting the wrong priorities. Saying that
he is doing "nothing useful" is a bit polemic, of course, but that
probably stems from frustration. In context, it's hardly an "insult".
It's absolutely true that many reported issues don't get fixed for
*years*. And that very much includes serious bugs. As far as I can tell,
it's also true that Walter prioritizes new features instead (ImportC is
the latest fad).
I sympathize with Temtaime. Their criticism wasn't sugar-coated, but it
is constructive and it is valid in my opinion.
