Me thinks we call this irony: the first two posts in this chain asked whom this was pointed at, and suggest Zed Shaw. You make a good point that it might be he who wrote it. ;)
No, Zed is being sarcastic. The post was written by Chris McDonough.
Zed has maintained many open source projects for more than 6 months. Also, if you've met Zed in person, you'll find that he's one of the most considerate and cool people ever.
It could be Zed, but the funny thing is in that case, Zed got 100% test coverage for Lamson done about a month ago.
