In November 2013, Ben Noordhuis, one of the maintainers of the libuv project, summarily rejected a pull request that removes gendered pronouns from the project's documentation. Noordhuis commented, "Sorry, not interested in trivial changes like that." and immediately closed the pull request without merging it. A different committer, Isaac Schlueter, subsequently accepted the pull request, but Noordhuis reverted this change and chided Schlueter for having accepted it. A few days later, Noordhuis elected to step away from libuv and Node.js.
