Ok, thats fair and thank you for verbalising what the changes are. I'm not closed to the idea of the RFC just didn't want to go down that road if it just ended up with 2 opposing views and not getting to a conclusion. I will challenge a couple of things: 1. I'm not sure there is currently a "charter" that says we won't modify the contents of a TU, and actually in my view that has already changed when we added. (include sorting, namespace comments, javascript requoter, trailing comment inserter). 2. I agree if we want to use this as formalising that "change" in charter then I'm ok to try via the RFC but I think we'll get 2 very opposing views, and likely no concencus. So I don't want to just cause a rift in the community any more than this is already. 3. As for the "TWO maintainers", I don't deny their extremely excellent contributions, far greater than mine could ever be. But in fairness they are not frequent maintainers here! On the other hand I am and have been for a number of years. When @djasper and @klimek stepped back a bit, I've really tried to help by filling even a little, the void of their enormous shoes. I can't even think of emulating all those peoples amazing efforts, but I do this in my free time as I assume other do, and I like to think there is value in me continuing to improve and debug clang-format. So I'd like to think my view isn't disregarded just because others with more muscle disagree, I mean I assumed this was at least a democracy where we could find a fair concencus.
