It was just matter of time that you change tunes of lack of resources 
and started chanting in having us do all their work but facts remains 
facts our obligation is to the installer, core and base.

Anything built on top of that is not ours to cover but relevant service 
sub community or WG if you prefer.

In the end of the day nobody knows the product better then those who 
built it and whom better to test it then those same persons.
