Try telling that to most. We get bitched at so much about it. We don't
have time to do it all but would love to. :P I LOVE writing personally.
I do all our wiki work.

Well some things are good to do both but this post was a general one to
let people know the sure-fire way to make sure the team sees an idea and
to post here. Thats all.

Sure. Hence some cross-posting but apparently it's not "my" (reference
from dumb flame posts) list and its just for users. Maybe I'll just
unsubscribe from the -users list ant further the perceived divide
between users and developers? :)

I'm so a user its not even funny. I just have some say in what goes on. :P

I suspect not long. People like to argue but rarely step up to do
anything. Sad fact. People just don't like to hear it and I don't mind
saying it. Oh well.
