You have not gave any reason to do so.

One Hundred Papercuts was started by Canonical itself, it has 50 active 
members who renewed their membership in the past year, it is used yearly 
in Google Code-In training new contributors among thousands of students, 
and it is a test bed for new quality assurance processes.

Moreover its logo inspires the Ubuntu wallpaper, the Ubuntu phone cage, 
the LibreOffice launch screen, and plenty of Ubuntu social media marketing.

So it proves to be an inspiring and useful project. And the secret 
flavour for it is having been build along with the community.

We even wrote 
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/One%20Hundred%20Papercuts/Mission) 
collaboratively. And even when we have a suggested triaging process and 
a goal, I consider crucial people to do the things on their style and 
have space to experiment.

When people start telling others about stopping collaborating, staying 
the same old way (they have set themselves), thinks requiring to be 
super perfect to be implemented (and never reaching that level), and 
effectively putting all decisions on a few, that my friend causes me a 
great feeling of rejection. Not because of me, but rather because of 
others probably quitting contributing to the project I made my standard.
