I strongly agree. In my specific case, I can't help so much in the
technical field. I can help recommending the product to my customers (big
companies, banks, ...) as long I see a team in front of the project,
pushing it, listening to users with an open-minded approach. Criticize a
project is a must. And the dev team should be prepared to hear things they
don't like. A defensive thinking slows down the evolution, as if end-users
will not feel comfortable giving their true opinions they will simply stop
giving feedback. And feedback -even "negative" feedback-, is usually
required for a project to grow up and drive it with a customer oriented
path in mind.

project.
Stefan,
we are NOT backstabbing. I, for my part, am writing and criticizeing
because I find Cherokee a project with a lot of potential. And mostly
because I am NOT able to help you in a technical way. I just can't so
what's the point of just throwing in our faces that we talk hot air.
That's not true.
We are trying to point out how customers think
and this discussion revealed a lot of good points and arguments. Like
that with a greater popularity the supporters (devs, designers, writers,
marketing people) will grow. But it won't grow if interested people
think the project is dead. And that is most probably happening right
now. As pointed out, there were no updates visible to end users. The
community site is broken. The installation guide is plain wrong.
Yes,
the best helmsmen stand ashore. But that means there must be someone in
front, pushing Cherokee. But I have the feeling *you* backstab anyone
who tries to constructively critize the project.
