I don't have too much to say on this other than I agree with both Aleksey
and Alex.
Our current development model is a great model to get projects off the
ground, but we've passed that stage now. We need stability, code proofing
and lots and lots of testing. Magnus' commits have always been erratic and
difficult to follow, so much so that he is one of the only developers who's
patches I skip over in ros-diffs. (and I know I'm not the only person who
does this). However, I'm unsure whether it was right to single him out.
Maybe it's time to move all developers into a similar model, a model more
akin to Alex's suggestion.
I sympathize with Aleksey and the testers, who I watched many times chasing
their tails regress testing a broken tree due to untested commits. Commits
which are mostly from the same tiny minority.
Did Aleksey make the right decision? I'm not sure. But he did make a
decision, a decision which he believes is for the good of the project. I'm
happy to go along with these decisions because no one else has more of the
facts and is in a better decision to do so.

Subject: Re: [ros-dev] when will I return Magnus Olsen aka GreatLord
Man, I wonder where you guys were when I was getting shit for breaking
the kernel due to *valid* changes.... and cooperating.
I love Greatlord but, it's not the fact he's breaking stuff that I
think Aleksey is tired off... it's breaking stuff, promising to
change, and then still break stuff. Looking over commits, I don't
think anyone has broken the OS more than Greatlord except myself. I
also don't think anyone has committed more code than myself (And
probably w3seek). So yes, there does seem to be a valid proportion.
Both greatlord and I were massive regressors, but also massive
changers... that doesn't make it RIGHT though. It was probably wrong
even during my time... I can't get away by saying "ah yes, but my
changes were correct!!!!". So I will probably say that lenience was
given to me (not always though, I did get into some pretty big
fights)...
Now, because Steven Edwards made a mistake and didn't punish me enough
(I eventually stopped breaking stuff when I stopped being 18 years old
and having no SE experience, you'll notice), does it mean history have
to repeat itself? This is an age-old chidish argument "BUT HE DIDN"T
GET ARRESTED!!! WHY DID I?". If the law failed to punish someone, that
doesn't mean everyone gets to go free.
Greatlord's breakage of the trunk, although proportional to his
commits, reflects a bigger problem -- your development model SUCKS,
and you need to fix it. So I don't think Aleksey is being -unfair-...
I think he's incorrectly attacking the person who "abused" the relaxed
rules the most... what he should REALLY fix is the rules themselves,
because any other dev in Greatlord's position would've probably acted
the same. Greatlord is just being the scapegoat.
So guys, one last time.
FIX YOUR DEVELOPMENT MODEL.
Think of it:
(# of developers which you ASSUME you will lose, for having a good SE
model*)
Is that bigger or less than:
(# of developers that you have lost because they got sick of regressions +
# number of developers that you have lost because they got sick of
being punished for doing regressions +
# number or developers that you have lost because they got sick of
seeing their friends punished for doing regressions)?
* Not only is this an ASSUMPTION, it's a STUPID one because this is
how EVERY LARGE FOSS PROJECT WORKS.
Please, get your shit together. Use the model I gave you, as a start,
or ANYTHING else than this shit.
Best regards,
Alex Ionescu

CHAPTER VII. THE FOUR CLASSES OF SOCIETY. THE FOUR CLASSES OF SOCIETY. "After the herald had given the names of the wrestlers who were to make the first round, the fellows came in. They were dressed without any clothes to speak of, or rather they were quite undressed, with the exception of a cloth around their loins. They came in on opposite sides of the ring, and stood there about five feet apart, each man resting his hands on his knees, and glaring at the other like a wild beast. They[Pg 231] looked more like a pair of tigers than human beings, and for a moment I thought it was not at all unlike what a bull-fight in Spain might be. I turned upon her choking with anger, but her melting beauty rendered me helpless. Black woods were on our left. "Shall we turn in here?" I asked. "None of that with me," he growled. "Do you know who I am, Countess Lalage? I am Leon Lagage, Count of the Holy Roman Empire, and your husband. Incomparable woman, you cannot alter that fact. For better or worse, for richer or poorer, till death do us part!" I have in this way imperfectly indicated a methodical plan of generating a design, as far as words alone will serve, beginning with certain premises based upon a particular work to be performed, and then proceeding to consider in consecutive order the general character of the machine, mode of operation, movements and adjustments, general arrangement, strains, special arrangement, and proportions. ‘Alas! what is life, what is death, what are we, 11th January two best dresses.

The next morning he was up betimes, and cooked the boys as good a breakfast as he could out of the remainder of his store and what he could get from the hospital, and then gave what was left to whoever came. The comfortable crib, which had cost the Deacon so much labor, had been pre-empted by the Surgeon for some of his weakest patients. "You two step forward one pace," he commanded. "Gentleman, I've got my six. The rest are yours." "Where are you goin'?" he said sternly. Every now and then the crowd would break into the latest rhymings of MacKinnon's poet: A large thicket, at this moment, gave the dusty foot an opportunity of doubling, and, for an instant, diverging from the straightforward course, though it availed him little, he seemed to feel the breath of his pursuer on the back of his neck; his foot sounded as if at his heels; he drew his garment closely around him, turned suddenly to the right, and, bounding from the ground, the next instant a splash was heard in the little river, and the fugitive was safe from his pursuer.
