@jenniferplusplus I have read it, I wouldn't be commenting otherwise. You are suggesting that introducing bureaucracy would help, and alleging to how it helps solve the "tragedy of the commons" problem. But open source communities don't have such a problem, they are not competing, and they are not limited by a physical resource that can be depleted and that would require maintenance by a governing body to protect it from devastation. And it would be useless for the problems you mention.

And no, we don't need more bureaucracy, thank you very much.

When you're naming things in your code, what do you call identifiers other than “id” and “key”?@hongminhee hedgehogs_per_second
