Rebecca,
is it perhaps you who terrible misunderstand something here?

Perhaps you missed to take into account that YaST development happens
now via a public accessible mailing list and therefore it might seem
arrogant how you teach community members what they must do according
to your internal guidelines and announcements.


I think that we should definitely appreciate any reasonable input
regarding YaST development from community members because otherwise
we should make YaST non-free software with a non-public YaST
development mailing list.
