Man, I wonder where you guys were when I was getting shit for breaking the kernel due to *valid* changes.... and cooperating.
I was in the channel arguing that you were valuable enough to overlook the occasional breakage streaks. I wasn't the asshole I am today, or I would have done more than just suggest that, whisper whisper, if you keep this up, Alex might just... maybe... you know... AHEM AHEM leave AHEM AHEM
Both greatlord and I were massive regressors, but also massive changers... that doesn't make it RIGHT though. It was probably wrong even during my time... I can't get away by saying "ah yes, but my changes were correct!!!!"
I dreaded the idea of you leaving in the middle of your activity peak. There are better ways, I'd wager, to channel a skilled developer's enthusiasm than whips and reins
FIX YOUR DEVELOPMENT MODEL.
Magnus is being singled out as a guinea pig for the new development model, as a way to make up for past wrongs (or because Aleksey had a bad day). I can't accept this, it's arbitrary and uncomfortable. I'd leave too in this situation
If this is the new and improved ReactOS?,,, One reason to hate wine, so let'us become the thing we most hate.
The standards for trunk quality are too arbitrary. All developers should have trunk rights nevertheless, for emergency fixes, but there must be standards. A checklist. Automated regression testing and continuous integration, because not everyone can test changes on all supported build and runtime environments
LOL!!! HAaaahaaahahhaaaaaAAaaahh~ OMG! I just got it! If the automated testing system would, say, pass all the test in windows 2008,,,, LOL~ does that mean our patches would always fail and the automated system would, just, like kick them out anyway? Phuc! lets do it! Sounds like fun! Oh, weez a-bit see-re-usz now~
Okay, it official! The new development model is unaccepted, I'm going to use the GLP to enforce that right. It is all or nothing and a vote will not do! The consensus is a stalemate so the move is disapproved. The ONEs that disagree are welcomed to fork the tree. ReactOS stays as it always, FREE and OPEN! A collective controls the source not one.
Get back to work, we have a release coming due. James
