No you aren't just saying. You are looking to provoke a fight. You
don't like Pulse Audio, fine. You want to bring it up over and over,
less fine. You want to then duck and dodge any criticism of your
actions as "being told to not insult the mother ship" is just plain
wrong. Please stop and see if you can find a better way to
communicate. If all you can do is be sarcastic, take a break for a
while.
And yes I find Lennart to not have started this any better and I sent
him an email just like this earlier.
It always amazes me how the Red Hat employees are those that speak up against criticism of
something like this. I stand by my mothership comment no matter how inflammatory it may
be. Can we let this go for now?
I actually like PA, it has worked for me in F12 and appears to be in F13 and I hope to
make greater use of it in the future. The problem is with burying one's head in the
sand saying the bugs are acceptable or not that big of a deal. It is a big deal because it
was never dealt with in small bits as things came in.
Lennart is busy with the next great thing, I can accept that, we really have no other
choice. Where is the failure? Perhaps it is as has been mentioned in the past, a bad idea
for upstream to maintain/package their software projects. For this existing
'problem' a solution that may be ugly and hackish is to close all PA bugs older
than say 2 months. Have a party to triage those remaining bugs and handle the incoming new
relevant bugs as they come in. I don't think that this many bugs with more coming
everyday should wait another 2-3 months for Lennart to have time to deal with them.
Seth said 'Maintaining and tending to bug reports is definitely "real
work".' This brings me to question where are the others that are upstream? Why is
all of this falling on the shoulders of one man?
