But Ethan, you don't understand. Everyone else's interests and obligations
are irrelevant, the world is just supposed to conform to Anatoly's every
whim.

Anatoly: please stop posting ideas inspired solely by your inability to
take anyone else's interests into account, even after a PSF director has
taken the time to sit down with you at the PyCon US sprints and attempt to
explain the legal complexities that led to the introduction of the
contributor licensing agreement.

Moderators: please don't let such posts out of the moderation queue,
they're a complete waste of everyone's time. The core development team has
already burned years on Anatoly's antics with nothing much to show for it -
it is his decision to opt out of contributing, yet he obstinately refuses
to accept the consequence that doing so renders his opinion largely
irrelevant to many of us.

Regards,
Nick.
