I think that's where some of the confusion comes in.

You say:

"Some people go far, far, far over the line."

So some people are assuming this is just the maintainer responding badly to people pointing out problems with his or her code, but you are saying it went far beyond that into personal attacks?

Yes, they did. I posted an example of a particularly egregious one elsewhere in this thread.

Yeah, saw that. Criticism of code should turning into personal attacks is never justified.
