Soliciting contributions of code for improvements to an open source
project isn't what I'd classify as unfriendly and I'd expect RL people
to take a leadership role when it comes to maintaining a solid
foundation for the project.  It is very difficult to infer tone from a

I'm willing to give Michael the benefit of the doubt.
