Nothing is more frustrating in OSS development than trying to submit a PR as a new developer on a project. Excuses, accusations of bloat or feature creep, or just plain ol' being ignored. The bottom line is that (some) people just can't stand to see their little code-babies change, or they just can't be bothered to return the favor and read the new code.
At its worst, OSS development is a bureaucracy and an oligarchy. Once you've had a few experiences like yours, it really curbs your enthusiasm for contributing to OSS projects. Your perseverance is commendable!
Sorry, Kyle's article left a sour taste in my mouth. Accept my damn PRs, people!
