[ros-dev] Ros-dev Digest, Vol 46, Issue 23

[Richman Reuven]

hi! i've been following the project for a couple of months and this kind 
of drama, i really didn't expect...

both sides have a point.
a serious project needs a working tree and a work-on tree. (the temp 
working implementation vs correct implementation by magnus isn't a 
simple issue, perhaps there should be another tree for that as well or 
for it to be a work-on-far tree like linux-staging tree - to work on 
things which don't enter the next release...)
but asking one developer (and quite an experienced, one of the top 
contributors) to be the only one to be double checked is...
coding conventions also do matter. however I don't think that the diff 
between !f00 and f00==false is what's causing the breakage.

i really don't understand how such a project at this stage, doesn't 
adapt any of the methods used by virtually every other project to manage 
the process...
also as far as the "it's a private problem" opinions, it couldn't be any 
more wrong! this kind of thing and these decisions will be _hunting_ the 
project for a long while!
i know both sides seem to be in a "pinch" but it'd be really best if you 
guys said "sorry i was wrong" in private and reported the issue as 
resolved...

sorry for the intrusion...
