You refused to acknowledge the public outcry over SDR for months and pushed
patches the community clearly objected to (see andreas thread).

That could clearly apply to invoiced work that the community disagreed
with. What would you do then? You weren't willing to compromise last time
for your hobby, what makes you willing to compromise in that situation?

I mean it basically happened already with SDR, just without an invoice.

"I think you should try to bring the work you want funded into the framework
that they told us to use. Instead of complaining"

And now you follow the same tactics with Derek. Accusing people of disagree
with you of spreading resentment.
