Fair enough, but it works more or less fine in 12.10 contrary to 
official expectations, so I thought the same might be true of 13.04. 
Sorry if my response was a bit heavy-handed, but the "as has been stated 
many times" felt a bit harsh. I know what the official line is, having 
been a participant in those discussions, but not all of us are official 
Canonical people, and some of us actually want to run the bleeding edge 
because we ourselves help to create it. Also, not everyone wants to use 
the same distribution for two years in a world where things move 
quickly, and some of us are willing to tolerate a bit of breakage in 
exchange for that.

My intent was not to email you separately, this list's default reply-to 
functionality just happens to work differently than 99% of the mailing 
lists to which I am currently subscribed. As such, I often reply rather 
than reply-to-list, which I think is the common expectation for someone 
conducting a list discussion and wanting to continue it on same.

Thanks.
