Nope, that's not the only reason.

You missed the fact that there's volunteers who have fun doing this, for 
some value of "fun" anyway, and then there's people whose job entails 
keeping package X in shape and who helpfully share their work with the 
community, if nothing else because long-term it's less effort than doing 
it all yourself.

Acknowledging the employer, sponsor, or whatever-you-name-them of such 
work is something *I* call "common courtesy", esp. since there are no 
immediate tangible advantages for doing so.

Having said that …

I think that's un-called-for. To put it mildly.

So you two have a history of adverse interaction, and it shows.

Please stop. Both of you. You're not accomplishing anything except 
discourage others (I admit that I'm extrapolating from a sample size of 
one here, but still) from working with either of you, and/or the 
"official" Asterisk package.
