No sharing. Inside or out. I'd suggest taking a look at contrib/stallion (particularly patch and src) before adding yet more vitriol to the list. > In the case of 'The Labs' these days, sharing seems to be an anathema. Acceptance of outside code? Never. I'm not certain this is a completely fair criticism. The Labs is quite a bit smaller than it used to be these days. Patience helps. > For the rest of us, share my code by accepting what I wrote - verbatim - or just peer at my work on the pedestal I constructed over here? Feh. I submit patches for everything I work on that touches sources. There are a number of others that do the same, regardless of whether they get rejected or not. > What the fuck ever happened to 'community' ... Indeed.
