> I genuinely enjoyed Neil's comment a lot for I feel it's great wisdom, not only for its pleasant self-reference or its rhetorical structure. I suppose we all know more or less that starting a fight is definitely not the good way to solve an issue, yet I'd never laid a finger on it so clearly.

As a retired maintainer, Neil speaks from experience. And the community he led is a happy one, in my experience.

Cheers,
Wol

A very happy one. It's hard to think of many other communities as collegial and helpful-to-a-fault. TeX would count, but no others I'm aware of.
