Accepting a PR from a new contributor implicitly means accepting the contributor her/himself into the project: a technical contribution in exchange of social recognition. But this only make sense as long as the contributor has actually contributed a significant effort. In my case, I did not code anything. Were defining a problem, supervising a LLM, testing the results, participating to the follow-up discussions, sufficient contributions? maybe not. @doctormo@floss.social you might have a different take? 6/9

But the important point is elsewhere: I did not submit this PR because I really wanted to join the community of Inkscape developers. I submitted this PR because it wanted to address a pain point in the software. I did it (with the help of an LLM) and I thought it could be useful to others, so I tried (and failed) to share it. 7/9
