4. I don't care about your tone. At all.

And I think even volunteers ought to be able to strive for better work. 14 was good, 15 was great - they just needed to do, well, not worse. Didn't.

Proper channels? You mean hidden behind closed doors so people can't see the criticism? Why? Not proud of the work?

No surprise there.

My "reaction" is always the same to sorry work. And your answer is "should be using Windows"? LOL. Snide remarks instead of info. But I expected nothing more.

I even asked on the IRC forum, without the attitude that bothers the thin-skinned so much. Got "try something else". No answers there either. Tried again, got crap about the history of the file, it's use in other distros. Nothing about these changes and what they mean.

I'll work through it, of course. I always do. I have other distros in other machines, virtual machines running other stuff, things in the cloud that I can use - not exactly bereft of ways to get done what I need to get done.

But I'm not a simpering cheerleader. The crap shouldn't hit the street until it's ready. That's why they have the process that exists before RC's.

I feel mostly for the user that hears this is good stuff, and tries it. They go to the forum and get crapped on. Linux advocate blames it on user. Linux stays second class.

One more time.
