Hi,
One thing is clear, Aditya has a thick skin, which sadly still seems to be a quality required in many open source projects including ours.
And will remain so for the foreseeable future.

This sounds like a serious miscommunication before the GSoC project begun. Something for the https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Mentorship_programs/Lessons_learned page, perhaps?
Perhaps, but what is the lesson we need to learn?
I was thinking along the lines of "the MW wiki-community is similar to other communities in our movement; they want to be consulted for every important (where important for them is not necessarily what you would expect) change"
... And now Aditya is about to finish his GSoC project (looks like successfully), having followed our processes as they were designed and having accomplished the goals initially set. In the first place he deserves our congratulations and gratitude.
Absolutely! Still, the bikeshedding will not stop for such details... :)
