But, this is important context to the discussion. Unfortunately, to the uninformed community, asf board, members etc, my behavior likely appears very irrational: but this is because they are unaware of these private emails (which many of us STRONGLY encouraged to go to a mailing list) expressing there should be no refactoring. Its unfortunate the PMC didn't address this immediately, instead we all ignored the elephant in the room and ... hoped it would go away? As far as "letting someone stop me first", I think you are underestimating the amount of time it takes to refactor this stuff, even the tiny refactorings like this spellchecking one. LUCENE-2995 took me an entire sunday. When you already know someone is against the patch before you even start writing the code, its very discouraging.
