Ruby Forum IronRuby > Re: Code Review: warning2

I'll reply to both patches with this mail.

We actually can't accept patches to anything in the DLR and Ruby parser 
and runtime. So really the patches have to be to the libraries, or the 
infrastructure. We also need to back out some of your commits. I can ask 
the DLR to make these changes for you though.

Sorry about this. We can try to make it clearer if you have a suggestion 
on how to do it.

If this were any other project, by this time, I would have said "I
quit. You suck. This is not open source".

I do understand this is not any other project, but I am sad.

"Baby steps."  Don't think of it as just contributing to a project; 
think of it as helping to change a large multinational corporation in a 
way that benefits both it and the rest of the world.
