I find it sad that we have different interpretations of what it means for projects to be tolerant, and I’m disappointed to see you leave like that. Like Ludo said: there’s nothing for any of us to lose in trying what we can to make this project more welcoming than what is sadly the norm in many software project. A practical question: Will you continue to work on and maintain Cuirass at your notabug repository or should someone here take over maintenance of this project? I was about to work on some patches and would like to know if you decided to abandon Cuirass. Thank you for you past contributions. -- Ricardo GPG: BCA6 89B6 3655 3801 C3C6 2150 197A 5888 235F ACAC https://elephly.net
