From the old (infradead) libusbx mailing list: On 2012.02.08 20:22, Nathan Hjelm wrote: > (...) count me in on a fork. Releases are taking too damn long! I also sent him the following: On 2012.03.21 16:04, Pete Batard wrote: > We currently have myself, Xiaofan and Hans onboard as admins, but as > Xiaofan pointed out, it'll mean that the voice of OS-X might be a bit > lacking, at least in appearance, when it comes to the decision-making > process, so I wouldn't mind having you onboard. > > (...)

Thus, he's been offered the opportunity to express himself on the decision to fork as well participate in a democratic process to steer libusbx, which he declined (and I'll just remind people who think that somehow I'm the only one who gets to decide where libusbx is going that I too have been overruled by this process). Now, I don't really have much of a problem with people changing their mind, or developers coming and going (happens with all projects), but, from the above, I don't think Nathan has much ground to voice complaints about libusbx. > Amazing how difficult it is to create decent cross platform USB library > ... I've lost track how many efforts I've seen over the years. Well, hopefully someone who wants to scratch an itch on OS-X will pick it up. And we could probably use a Linux developer too (<cough>USB 3.0 descriptors</cough>) as well as a *BSD one (<cough>topology call</cough>)...
