Request to open a discussion tab on this repository
Marcus98T opened this issue · comments
Well, for anyone to ask a non-issue question and discuss some processes, may I request that Adobe open a discussion tab on this page?
I am still trying to learn and understand what's going on, but then all I heard is that Adobe is very busy with other things, their Creative Cloud software being of much higher priority, so nowadays the Source Han projects are not getting the attention they deserve, especially after Dr. Ken Lunde has already left. Also I believe @punchcutter has many other responsibilities that are not related to this font, such that he doesn't have the time to go through and discuss the many other issues this project has, or that they are put in the burner for the next major release, which will take several more years to realize. Multiple parties are also involved, from font designers like Arphic to standard bodies, so it is why the project is so complex.
It's been done for this issue on Sans, which was converted to a discussion thread, so the discussion tab was automatically opened. But actually, it didn't open the floodgates for anyone to ask questions on Sans.
Ultimately I have no right to know about this, and Adobe is not obligated to help or make the font perfect, but would it be beneficial for Adobe and everyone to have a discussion tab, just in case? Maybe it will involve a huge paradigm shift, so if Adobe thinks a discussion tab is not beneficial for them, they are free to close this issue as not planned.
Dear Marcus98T, have you ever read this?
https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/5709
Nope, and thanks for providing an appropriate link. I will close this issue.
EDIT: I think after I read this link, it goes to show that I am simply being entitled. I can continue to request glyph fixes and suggestions via issues, but ultimately it is not my project, there is limited time and resources on Adobe's side and there's absolutely no obligation from them to fix or share anything. I will never understand how burdensome the maintainer can feel, and he still has the choice to ignore my issues completely.
For that, out of respect, this issue will remain closed.
