No, people do not need to ask my opinions before submitting a registration. The guidelines for the General registry are based on a broad consensus of all registry maintainers, and usually [a discussion with the larger community](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/should-general-have-a-guideline-or-rule-preventing-registration-of-vibe-coded-packages/133205). We try to have those guidelines written out in the [README of the General registry](https://github.com/JuliaRegistries/General?tab=readme-ov-file#general), even if their application is still subject to common-sense and individual considerations. My “opinion” is not a law of what can and cannot be registered… and actually, _any_ community members should feel free to monitor the feed of package registration and voice concerns by leaving blocking comments on a registration to start a discussion that has be be resolved before a registration can be merged.

My other opinions, like to what extent exactly one should use agent-based coding, are just that: my (potentially evolving) opinions
