Ian Murray hits the point.
now i followed this list for some mounth and im gonna change also my
last boxes to SL.
I've never seen so strange and useless comments from devs in any other
mailinglist before.
The information politic is just horrible bad, devs act very ignorant
and insult people, reject offers from people that want to help.
This is everything else then enterprise-class.
Good luck with this direction.
