Or simply because they don't accept/respect/understand the goals other people are trying to achieve. There's no need for everyone to do that for all goals Debian developers have, but if you're going to do things that interfere with others' goals for the distro, you do have to take some care. If you're not willing to take that degree of care, or find some way of achieving your goals that doesn't affect other folks work, you'll find you won't be trusted. That shouldn't be surprising. And yes, sometimes it might be better to accept that what you want to do interfers with other people's directions and do it anyway. But it's not fair or reasonable to expect other people to like it, or not to rethink how they work with you. Cheers, aj
