Woah, hold it there cowboy.
The ONLY fix I will apply to a part not already submitted as a fix would be to
slightly adjust the part position. I feel that small and minor errors can be
fixed by anyone and would only fly off the handle (ok, I don't fly off the
handle but others do) if someone submitted a major change to my part. In fact I
would be not at all be bothered if someone fixed some minor error in my code,
after all they know where it is.
That being said, I think that this rant should have been privately Emailed to
the people in question (Myself and Steffen) and not posted here.
