This one reminds me of Paulo...

I contributed patches on several things I missed and knew how to fix.

I already tried to contribute more than that and I was ignored, which
happens quite often with other people's code too.

Even recently my technical opinions were of some help for the 
Dynabeans package which is similar to something I implemented. The 
fact that Craig acknowledged that is much more important to me than 
the fact that you don't. 

I my opinions were of some help on other occasions too but that is 
controversial. At least I try to give constructive ones, did you 
notice that?


In answer to just this kind of remark you once sent me on a private 
mail (when my opinions were obviously bothering you by challenging 
yours), I replied asking you for guidance about several things I had 
that could be contributed, and you ignored me too. I was not being 
ironic on my reply - I really expected that you would give me some 
pointers and do something constructive instead of just wining.

My conclusion is that you are much more interested in getting rid of
my opinions than on getting my code contributed. what bothers you is
the challenge to YOUR opinions, isn't it Jon?


Have fun,
Paulo Gaspar
