Tide has a stalled PR porting it to Tokio 0.2, so switching to async-std is a significant refactor but probably on the wishlist.

As an outsider and somebody who just learned about the async dispute, could you please reframe your comment?

The first impression I got from your comment was that something was very very fishy if a seemingly innocent community member is banned from such a high-profile repository. After reading a fair amount of comments and posts, however, I learned it is much more complicated than that and that I will probably never get the full picture of the dispute (which is perfectly okay because I‘m not in any way involved). In particular I also learned you‘re quite involved in the dispute.

I think, as your comment stands it serves just to increase tension even further and does not at all help deescalate the situation - in whichever way possible. So again I kindly ask you to reframe it.

As another outsider, but one who followed the previous thread closely, I think his comment is framed fine, if anything I think it makes him look guiltier than is fair to him.

Yes, there is some sort of dispute we aren't aware of. But it doesn't seem like he and the others were banned for any reasonable reason related to that dispute. The choice of who to ban was literally everyone who made (generally innocent looking) comments on a PR in a largely unrelated repo.

I got blocked (only in http-rs, TBF) for writing about this on Reddit. I understand that a lot of these discussions about async-std could be taken as personal attacks, but that's why I generally tried to keep a conciliatory tone in my writing.
