We need to nip this kind of thing in the bud.

“Artistic (volatile) temperament” is just a euphemistic way of saying “engages 
in unchecked abusive behaviour toward their peers”, and no member of the 
community should be expected to bend over backwards to tolerate this or to turn 
a blind eye to it.

Even more specifically nobody at Fedora should be forced to ask special 
permission from or give special notification to specific individuals over and 
above the established procedures before doing their work. Their commit 
privileges / karma / following the established procedure give them that 
permission.

If someone makes a change to your code, start with the premise that the person 
who made the change did so in good faith, and respond appropriately from there.

Graham
