I think you need to take a step back and calm down a bit really to
assess the situation more clearly.
You can't blame the community team for not doing something 20 years ago
because there wasn't a community team 20 years ago.
It's also unreasonable to say the only time a bug can be reported in a
program is when a new maintainer takes it over. If it's a bug now then
it's reasonable to report it now, even if you've spent 2 years working
on it. (One can, and evidently many will, debate whether it's a bug or
not.)
I'm also fairly sure you were aware of the last discussion that we had
on this very topic when you decided to adopt fortunes-it. The fact the
last discussion, and last actions, weren't on the fortunes-it package
specifically is a technicality: surely you anticipated someone at some
point complaining.
You may have a legitimate grievance about *how* the community team have
acted, I'm not sure: if so it's too tangled up in in your complaints
about the above facets.
Take a break. Is this the line in the sand you want to draw?
