Maxim, I'm sorry that I've somehow offended you in the process of doing this. It was not my intention. My view of the problem: a user filed a PR over 2 weeks ago which you did not respond to (due to being busy with other things or real life -- no biggie). In this "timeout" scenario (see the URLs Boris provided in another mail), other committers are allowed to step in and help if need be. The user and I were discussing, privately, scheduler-related things, and the PR was mentioned. I told him that ports maintainers are allowed up to 2 weeks to respond, after which other committers can take over if need be. After 2 weeks had passed, the user provided me the patch (the original PR mail snipped his attachment), and I committed it. I do not mean to offend you with this statement, but had you responded to the original PR and told the user "I'm aware of the problem, and that problem will be fixed in an upcoming release of the port I'm working on, no ETA", I strongly doubt any of this would have transpired the way it did. Finally, with regards to your request to "file this with the Digium bug system" (upstream) -- just whose responsibility is this? Is it really mine (because I committed something to the ports tree), or is it the users' responsibility since they filed the PR? I'd like to know, since if there's a responsibility I have which I wasn't aware of, then I need to take steps in the future to do things correctly. The mistake with the patch filename and lack of PORTREVISION bump are completely understandable and absolutely my fault. But clarification with regards to the latter items would be helpful.
