interrogations on motives for building from source

constant slap fights between contributors (usually involving haze or guru)

important PRs left ignored due to internal drama

8GB+ memory leak during building that they're in no rush to fix

Afaik gurudumps is a total jerk, constantly being hostile for no reason to newcomers.

Haze is almost always in conflict with mame lead Cuavas when trying to upstream his code, but his anger mostly justified.

Cuavas is a huge micromanager, he won't accept your code even if you just missed a typo in a line comment.

I respect his commitment to hold the codebase to absolute standards, but sometimes he takes his micromanagement too far that just makes the whole process unproductive.

The personalities working on this project are so hostile, usually without the skill to warrant it, that it's one of the few cases where having a CoC wouldn't be a horrible idea.
