It's funny how Japanese contributors often go nuclear whenever things don't go their way instead of communicating etc. Bugs happen. this is tech. open communication is always the way to go before escalation. we see the same phenomenon in git, ruby etc etc etc.
Ironically, Japanese work culture encourages over-communication. It seems that open-source is considered a counter-culture that they want to escape japanese work culture from.
>In October 22, the sumobot was introduced to Japanese KB articles. I cannot accept its behavior and no words. [...] It has been working now without our acceptance, without controls, without communications.
How exactly did you manage to place the blame for no communication on Japanese contributors here given the actual complaint in question?
Because given the nature and scope of the complaint, they should have disclosed prior communication. It is clear here that they probably attempted, poorly, to communicate but ultimately chose to nuke the relationship instead, claiming that they have a monopoly over japanese translations.
I live in Japan so I have seen what danieltanfh95 describes many times in person. Japanese people at work seem to have infinite patience with whatever random bullshit their company will ask for, but outside of work they get easily frustrated when things don't go the way they expect.
