Again, it was a small library and three *leaf* ports. Nothing infrastructural, or affecting two thirds of the tree, or unfixable with a small patch. I don't see how these four ports could not be integrated in your big WIP Cinnamon tree (at any time). > certainly deterred me from continuing to contribute to the "collective > work" for a bit.

Okay, maybe not in the moment, but the question still stands: if someone commits something faster than you, and this gives you that feeling of deterrence from continuing to contribute -- how shall we all work together then? You'd keep a list of things you plan to port and ask people to stay out of this domain for indefinite period of time? ./danfe
