It's part of being human that we don't make sense -- just because we are
capable of intelligence and sense, and leaving well enough alone, doesn't
mean we will.
Like I said, we should put in plain site on the web site that we are willing
to help resolve issues, along with IRC and mailing list logs and link to the
bug tracker. That way, people who don't put forth the time and effort to work
with us to resolve their issues will look like the idiots, and anybody with
even a small amount of sense will see that and realize that the people who
are bashing us don't know what they're talking about.
