You completely, utterly and totally misread the meaning and spirit of what I said.  

To reiterate, if the maintainer is responsive, my opinion is that is a courtesy to notify him/her. 

 

That's all.  Some people are more attached and involved with their code and would appreciate 

the gesture. 

What you’re describing is passive aggressive behaviour, and this too is unacceptable.

It is not fair on people who do work in good faith to be scared of having sudden abuse flung at them by collaborators who refuse to abide by the established rules, and impose rules of their own. To be clear, none of what you propose is reasonable or acceptable.

No need to imagine that the maintainer is demonstrating "unchecked abusive behavior."  

For Pete's sake.  

As I made clear in another message, the message that started this thread is a clear example of unchecked abusive behaviour. I am calling this behaviour out explicitly as unacceptable in an open source community.

Regards,

Graham
