I agree with Alex and I was personally disappointed with this interaction on the dev list. I'm sorry that it wasn't addressed in the other thread. It is not fair to the authors who have worked hard on this feature. Features can and do have rough edges. It is important for us to engage constructively in any conversations. If there are gaps, it is important to file JIRAs or bring discussions with concrete, actionable feedback so that the authors can work on it. Better yet, offer patches that the authors can review. It doesn't necessarily imply that they will accept all suggestions / reports / patches as-is. They may act on the reports in consultation with broader audience and stakeholders in the community. The social contract exists on both ends - author and operator/users. After this particular interaction on the dev list, Alex reached out to a number of people who had concerns about TCM and collected their feedback. This is going beyond my expectations. Dinesh
