Pieter, I spoke with you back in 2013 at CodeMesh, about OSS development. I remember asking "if you default to merging PRs even if you don't agree with the, how can you assure quality control". And IIRC your answer was something along the lines of : "Why should I assume that I have the only answer for what quality is".

The frank humility of that answer has stuck with me over the years. And that simple 15min conversation has resulted in hours of contemplation. So thank you for making me think.

My pleasure. Read my blog if you want a lot more on the same kind of topics.
