> Vetting a possible maintener or fork is >0 work

Who said anything about vetting?



Generally, writing ‘who said anything about X’ strikes me as unproductive for discussion. At the least, the tone could be improved.

More generally, I wonder about your underlying thought process and expectation. Were you somehow bothered when someone raised an additional related point?

The way we interact with each here other matters.


Because people also complain when new maintainers are added and those maintainers cause problems or even abuse the project to insert malware. You can't win.


Well maybe those people don't have a valid complaint, but then that wasn't part of the original post; I was looking for a response from fovc specifically.

If the new maintainers cause problems, it's their problem, so the "you" in "you can't win" would of switched between maintainers.
