I agree with you.
From what I've read so far, it's a matter of fact that some 
developers/contributors were not aware of some "tensions" happened in 
the past. We should try to find a way to raise the awareness and 
discuss possible solutions before developers leave the project.
A mediation committee might be a way..

Even though my personal opinion is that the priority now is changing 
the development workflow and tools.
