The OP delivered a drive-by contribution and proceeded to condescend one of the maintainers. They posted the interaction to HN (for the second time) out of spite for the maintainer, labelling it an instance of gatekeeping.

Having a polite and diplomatic conversation about a non-trivial contribution idea is a common prerequisite for it to be accepted into a project, like Hapi.js.

It's no surprise that project maintainers don't wish to work with recalcitrant individuals, regardless of the merit of their contributions.
