But: »Der Ton macht die Musik« (for non German speakers: it's not what you say but the way you say it). From my outside perspective it looks to me as if a lot could be gained in appreciating other people’s work and putting things as friendly as possible also in cases of disagreement. Having a clear and agreed procedure of code style, code review, positions in the team, timelines and strategies for release versions might help to improve the atmosphere. I will be quiet now, because I don't want to stir up things that aren't truly my business on a public list. I appreciate very much all of your work and I hope very much that the atmosphere in the community can get a biotope for all developers to work in.
