The article mostly consider both side and the main point is to flourish open source community, which is highly appreciable.

I think, as an outsider, both side had its wrongs and corrects, the author could consider changing unsafe code and the community could be at least civil.

As a personal opinion, i can say that we have to consider the fact that the authors of open source software are mostly doing it for hobby or fun. And if we ever want to keep open source alive and magnificent, we should be very civil and and at least thankful for the programmer and their time.

The only way out i see that could solve the issue was to fork the project and do the desired changes there. I dont know why they did not do that when it got to that point.

I think most people kept hoping they weren't at that point, and could actually move forward without forking.
