Personally, I don't know why Rahul even bothers responding and I give him a lot of credit for absorbing all the guff. I know that most of the RH employees simply vacated this list because of this and the ones that still post here for time to time, simply never bother responding to any of it - if they do read it all. We used to have Chris K, Trond G, and Mike H on this list and they have all decided that they had better things to do with their time than defend the decisions typically made by others or by committee because of the impressions by some users. What appears to be reasonable to you (you in the collective sense of fedora-list users) probably seemed unreasonable to them from time to time, just as you assume that I am insulting you (in the personal sense) because I see some of the commentary to be repetitive to the point of whining without having any real chance at being constructive because the places that are designed to effectuate change are bugzilla and the developers list.
