Same works in the other direction. If I don't agree with the directions of 
the project, I don't work on it. If I still need to solve the problem I 
have, I sit down and write something that solves it, in the way I like it. 
The same "respect what's there" applies to that too.

So you are talking about how I should send my contribution to geda. If I 
ever get to start cschem, the same rules will apply: you should send your 
contribution, with full respect of the local customs, to cschem.

I know you won't. And the important thing is that you understand: the 
reasons you won't even consider contributing to cschem or other 
forks/rewrites are the same as the reasons I don't consider sending my 
patches to gschem. Once you underetand that, you also understand why there 
are alternatives, and the geda community will become a better place.

(Btw, there's a few years old rewrite in ruby, called PetEd. Did you send 
your contribution there, respecting that project?)
