In that context, since I haven't worked with you, I'm not going to take your
word for the correctness of any of the changes - not for something like the
first new upstream version of mawk in 12 years; so I don't foresee any way
that this would be a target for collaborative maintenance at this time, no.
By the way, your comment here is directed toward my changes as well.
If you have some specific criticism, you should make everyone aware of
the issue.
For what it’s worth, I interpreted the comment a bit differently: I took
it to mean he could not blindly trust my changes and would need to find
time to look them over. Though I could have misunderstood.
The part about "correctness of any of the changes" was in reference to
the original comment about having vetted the changes yourself.
Since Steve's not responded to any of my fixes, and this has gone on since
September 2008, perhaps some additional help is needed to review things.
