I always try to do that in applicable range as I understand it. It is
clear enough that real life is more complex that any rules and can't
covered by them perfectly, so only some sort of approximation is possible. 
F.e. in some situations maintainer is unavailable, uninterested or not
react fast enough. We have software project, not bureaucracy one, so
integrity is preferred over bureaucracy here. You know I fix my own
mistakes almost immediately. Enough said, I don't want to continue this
subject.
