Yes, of course working together is best. What bugged me here is that the bug on fdo was reopened before there was actually a consensus on how it can be done better. And the discussion about the bug was not even linked there. Keep in mind that closing a bug is a great boon for the developer -- dont take it away from him two days after he proudly closed it without a clear message on what to do better. > Besides, at least those bike-shed-color issues, are usually > trivially fixable after-the-fact ... ;) Exactly. Christoph applauded Sébastien for staying calm through all of this. I have to agree and ask others to follow his example: If you see some changes on master that you do not like: dont panic, create a well founded argument and then come forward with it.
