I realize that, and I'm glad to see that the projects responsive, and work well with each other. But we all know that sometimes that doesn't happen - good project maintainers come and go. Smaller projects don't do well when the good maintainers move on to other work, and you are left with no choice but to fork their code if you want to fix an issue in a timely fashion. > > It seems that at a minimum, you should at least include the refactored > > source code in the source download. > > If you care about this you can always open a bugzilla entry for an > enhancement and propose a patch. I probably will sometime in the near future, when I get caught up again :) Thanks for your patience, I know my initial post was rather a flame bait.
