@geospacedman @maphouse @hareldan I think it's a case of "You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain." 😬
@EvenRouault good riddance. I appreciated your comment "GDAL is not a playground to learn how to use git or AI". I think that's the stance we should take from now on.
This person https://github.com/abinayasiva29-web just earned the dubious honor of being the first user completely banned from the qgis repo for repeatedly wasting our time with ai slop. 👍

Once upon a time @EvenRouault spent his valuable time writing world class geo software. Now he's been forced to become a glorified kindergarten teacher, wasting time herding badly behaved slop pushers into line. I can't imagine how demoralising this is, but I know we'll ALL suffer as a result 😭.
@EvenRouault I'm honestly not sure if open source geo will even be a thing in 12 months time as a result of this. 🤷 I don't think these "contributors" realise that they're jeopardising the whole future of our projects by their actions. (I'd say that in a naive way they actually DO think they're helping out).
@sgillies a bit qgis, mostly the gdal ones right now
So f***ING sick of reading AI written bug reports. It's an instant "ignore" from me 🤮
@hareldan "one shared commitment" hahahahhahahaaHahahahaHahHAHAA 🤣 NOPE
@jakobmiksch @cartocalypse it's 100% likely to eat your shapefiles 😜
@klaskarlsson yes, but it's a release candidate. It'll probably eat your shapefiles. Plan accordingly 😉
