This is a poll to gauge the waters for CTR.
There is way too much Byzantine bureaucracy in this project.
It's constantly throwing spans in the wheels of progress:
A PR for adding one getter method turns into a request for porting a
code base from IO to NIO, see
https://lists.apache.org/thread/l23k5n6spfgs05ds06t4hpgmmssqpzvd
Apache Commons is already commit then review, which is unfortunate in
some cases, like when unnecessary dependencies were introduced to
commons-compress without prior discussion. And despite the late review
and veto it was never reverted.
That's not an issue for trivial changes like adding a getter or doing
internal changes, but for things difficult to revert it becomes an issue.
+1 for CTR on simple, low impact, changes
-1 to non trivial changes without discussion or consensus
