Right exactly. They're not tactful, but they also weren't in bad faith. Marcan should have taken 5 minutes to realize that he's the boss, he's the one doing the work, nobody is entitled to anything in free software and that if people want a feature sooner they can either fund the project or kick rocks. Anyone who's been in open source for over 2, definitely 3 understands this.

> I miss having free time where I can relax and not worry about the features we haven’t shipped yet. I miss making music. I miss attending jam sessions. I miss going out for dinner with my friends and family and not having to worry about how much we haven’t upstreamed. I miss being able to sit down and play a game or watch a movie without feeling guilty.

This is the big problem really. He should have just turned down his work hours to a regular 40 a week, asked for more donations to pay more people and asked for more volunteer help. And honestly, probably therapy.
