No!  This is a lame excuse.  The developer chose to respond to it.  He
could just have ignored that post.  He is not required to give any answer.
 The developer *chose* to waste time giving a completely useless response.
 He could rather have looked another way and continued doing something
else, which would be more productive in this case.

To be honest, I dislike the attitude of some CentOS developers, basically
telling people to f*** off whenever a nerve is hit.  If there was another
CentOS alternative which stays as close to RHEL as CentOS does, I would
really been using that instead.

I appreciate the work of the developers a lot.  I appreciate CentOS a lot.
 I know and understand that there is a lot of work behind CentOS.  But the
developers are not gods who can do whatever they like just because of their
position.

And if developers complains about lack of community help ... maybe they
should look a little bit closer on how they treat the community first.
