> you just want ideas versus egos to rule then you could've proposed to improve RVM.

One of the features I noticed from rbenv is that it does less than RVM. This is a good thing, but proposing this improvement to RVM would essentially be asking the maintainer to remove features.



People had similar complaints about Rails and now it's pretty modular and flexible with what you include/exclude. A proposal for RVM to be more modular with what it does to your shell would have probably been well received.


Certainly. Sometimes changes are just too major to bring back upstream and a new project is warranted. It just seems like Wayne was blind-sided by all of it.
