Well I think if you want someone to make changes to their open source project it's up to you to explain what changes you'd like or what doesn't work (or better, a pull request!) rather than just referring to a 3 page post. I don't think I'd read into his responses what you've read, but that's easy to do, and I can see how some of your responses could come across the wrong way too. And sometimes different projects have differences of opinion on approach, dependencies etc. That's OK!
