But it was not some point I was subconsciously trying to make. Now that you've confirmed my guess, I can state my point very loud and clear: In the world of open source where a lot of work are done by volunteers, people who can code and people who can't code are never going to have equal status. The users can report bugs, file requests for enhancement, make suggestions, but ultimately it's the volunteer developers who are doing the hard work. So as a user I try to be respectful to developers and defer to their judgement. I also tell all users who listen to me that they should do the same. You may disagree and that's fine, I could be wrong about this. I'm just writing all these out so that you don't take my original words as some sort of slight or condescension. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
