No problem :)

I just get annoyed when people are reporting problems and our response is
sometimes 'la-la-la-i-can't-hear-you' or 'send a patch/read the source'
(which is effectively the same thing).

If you (i.e. we, the project/users/whatever) start on this path you
end up with an elitist
product that nobody uses.

I shouldn't have to learn a programming language to report a bug -
and just because you got something for free (like my opinion) doesn't
mean you're
not allowed to say it sucks :)
