Once again the discussion is sliding into personal attacks and disagreements on non-technical grounds. This is annoying and not pleasant to see. Can both of you behave and not descend into a fist-fight?
X512, please note that waddlesplash is only one of many developers running the Haiku project. If you are not happy with the way he is behaving, you can start by discussing things privately with him by email or irc/matrix or whatever method you both find convenient. Itis not constructive to threaten to stop submitting your work, ask people to downvote tickets, or otherwise try to get the community as a whole to pick one side or the other. This divisive behavior does not earn you points here.
Waddlesplash, it is not the first time that you use your authority as a project member a bit too strongly in places where it is not appropriate. Things like giving -2 to patches despite other developers disagreeing with you (it’s not the first time you do this), and generally, I think, not being very open to new ideas. Clearly, some people in this thread (even ignoring the trolls: and people who are trying to stir up old problems which you have long grown up out of) are annoyed by this.
I don’t think this should go immediately into revoking commit access as some people have suggested. I hope that you both can take time to read back the various discussions, reflect on your own behavior, and see how and why this went into a fight instead of what should have been solved in a 10 minute discussion if you both had stayed on technical discussion and not other personal or behavioral things.
You are both good developers, please don’t put the Haiku project in a situation where we have to decide which one of you we should keep.
