You know Bob, some people have real jobs and lives.  They may not be
zealots devoted to the Fedora religion.  So they complain when things
change unexpectedly.  Why is that so hard for you to understand?  This
is not even worth discussing unless you have too much time on your
hands.  Please, let's just get back to Fedora...

I seem to have seen a few other posts from people who were lashing out
because they claimed they were on really mission critical projects and
list members weren't being nice and touchy feely and falling all over
themselves to be helpful with them. This post seems yet another of that
genre.
