Sorry, but we can't just let anyone just come in and get a wiki account. And, more to the point, they don't need it to add a NEC PCI card. Still worse, they don't seem to understand that adding a new chipset to the source code repo doesn't require a wiki account --
Yes sounds pretty suspicious to me, I'd be very cautious if I got a request for my site.
Now, finally, 1.5 years later we get a patch, which is fine, but it comes with lots of whining and lots of unsubstantiated claims. 30 mainboards? These guys have more than I ever had, and I worked at a money-filled DOE Lab!
Sorry, but every open source project has a high hurdle to newcomers for a reason. If they wish to come back and talk to us minus the insults, I am happy to have them back. But their current behaviour is completely unacceptable.
Agreed, the current behaviour is in no way professional, I am quite turned off.
