Yes. We obviously discriminate here.
Rereading my statement I see that it can be misunderstood. With "he" I of course didn't mean realthunder, but rather the youtube poster.
No misunderstanding there. I perfectly understood "he" meant the Youtube poster who is wondering why those sketcher things got merged before topological naming. Outright discrimination is the only possible reason. Then, of course, the reason must be the nationality or race, as this is the only obvious difference. Next will be mentioning the nationality of the majority of the original developers and bringing back ghosts of the past... Zero sum high impact argumentation line...

Yeah, some say that originally, FreeCAD should have been named WaspCAD. :mrgreen: :evil: :lol:
Nothing stings like WaspCAD !! :lol:

I think continuing to discuss this "discrimination allegation" here probably isn't going to benefit anyone - not to mention it's giving entirely too much credence to a random YT comment from a 3rd party.

I don't think FEM WB going well. Also took too long to get a merge.

Things can be improved, and after having tried it I agree it is lacking many needed features. But if you look at the commit activity it is doing very well:

Lacking feature is not the problem. Waiting 3 months for a commit is really not a good sign.

It does look like bernd has slowed down since the end of last year. Maybe a need to manage life/family vs work vs FreeCAD ?

More merger is absolutely the call.

IMHO stability is more important than features, thus some code needs a bit longer to merge especially if there is no unit test. Unfortunally most devs do some new feature but do not make a unit test. Later they do not maintain the code they have contributed. Eventually it is me who maintains the code. Without a unit test or any example at all this is cumbersome. Thus in FEM we have set up examples in the last GSoC to improve the situation. Thus I ask on any new feature if there are examples and if it is possible to implement a unit test.

Which one are you referring to?
