Btw, if anyone has experience with the open source community in general and llama.cpp in specific, I would greatly appreciate some advice. I’m facing a bit of an interpersonal issue that I really hope is resolved without any ill will. Here is the context:
Any advice for what I can do? Due to this, I cannot create a PR or issue in the llama.cpp repository. However, I am worried about bothering the maintainers on other channels in case it aggravates them further. Thank you for your help!
Email that author (email can usually be found via GitHub, or contact via other private way they've shared somewhere) and explain the situation, don't lambast them publicly on social media or similar ways. If that doesn't work, do the same but for another maintainer. Don't spam all of them straight up, wait a week or something before contacting someone else.
That would be inadvisable as the maintainer (?) in question's GitHub bio states:
> Emailing me about a temporary ban will result in a permanent one instead.
As far as I can tell the ban was given based on a single accidental ping to the maintainer, who then reviewed the draft PR before realizing it was not for the mainline llama.cpp repo.
