Hi,
I'm not questioning YunQiang Su technicals skills, but i am concerned
about a dispute we had around mapnik ITA and sponsoring of it, see [0].
This is what i think happened:
YunQiang uploaded an update to mapnik on mentors.
I replied to the mapnik ITA and didn't realize he already did,
then i tried to make him commit his work to the git repository of
mapnik debian package. From there it was only misunderstanding,
and no collaboration was possible.
Since he didn't reply to the email i'm referring to, i figured
someone knowing him better than me could help resolve that situation.
Regards,
Jérémy
