[vlc-devel] [vlc-commits] posix: rely on F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

You asked why the ambience is bad and I answered. I don't want to hear excuses. If you don't like the answer that does not change.

If you think the GSoC ambience is more worthy than the vlc-devel ambience, that is your subjective opinion. That does not change the situation that the ambience is shit because of demotivate from UI brokeness (like in 0.9) and from you picking on people who don't agree with your mandatory review hypocritical nonsense.
