That doesn't mean there aren't problems. The pural of anecdote is not data. Jono has provided examples of the things he thinks are not ideal, to simply dismiss them all with a "RTFM!" or "You're wrong" or "My kids don't have any problems" is incredibly unhelpful. And for what it is worth my wife won't try to do much more than watch recordings because it is not simple. Yet she was the one who programmed the video when still used that piece of antiquated junk. > Also, it's pointless to complain about things that have been fixed in SVN. How is a user running the latest stable release supposed to know what has been fixed? Do you really want to discourage users reporting problems by shouting "It's fixed in SVN" at them all the time? I don't run SVN so I don't know, but I strongly expect that at least some of the issues raised still exist. > Developers knew it was an issue and fixed it. What more can you expect them > to do?? I can expect them to reply with a lot more politeness than has been shown in this thread. The tone of this thread has been outright dismissal that anything is amiss. That's not the way to treat someone trying to offer constructive criticism.
