I find it sad that we have different interpretations of what it means
for projects to be tolerant, and I’m disappointed to see you leave like
that.  Like Ludo said: there’s nothing for any of us to lose in trying
what we can to make this project more welcoming than what is sadly the
norm in many software project.

A practical question: Will you continue to work on and maintain Cuirass
at your notabug repository or should someone here take over maintenance
of this project?  I was about to work on some patches and would like to
know if you decided to abandon Cuirass.

Thank you for you past contributions.
