Hi Dmitry, I don't believe your initial sarcastic tone helped and now we're here: you saying David's e-mail will go to /dev/null. If we can step back a little, perhaps we can get some perspective and 'reset the clock.' The way I see it is Innotek is leveraging the Open Source model to minimally get QA'ing and Usability feedback from the user base. This saves Innotek cost in the software lifecycle. The user base wins because of the robustness of the product. Of course, the product isn't perfect but that's someone a given: we'll _all_ work together to make it better. As with any set of users, you'll have a wide spectrum of users from relatively new users to power users and developers. As a developer at Innotek, I believe you need to remove the 'emotion' of a post and look for the 'gem' In the above case, the snapshotting interface is 'rough' It needs to be improved. Early on, I found it 'klunky' as well however it's more to do with the naming rather than the engineering. I believe a first cut would be to change the UI to make it 'smoother' - anyway, I'm digressing. If you're asking for constructive feedback, then ask for elaboration. There's no way to 'know' exactly what you're seeking unless you elaborate. To /dev/null David is very severe and alienates the user base. > -- > keep cool, Sage advice for everyone to follow.
