BTW, just one more thought on topic:
there are 2 kinds of feedback actually.
Feedback on technical actions were done - bug reports is accepted way of 
this feedback and not "bashing".
But there is another type of feedback - feedback on way changes were 
introduced, that is, social-related feedback. And high level of flaming on 
boards IS versy constructive sign that changes were introduced in 
inappropriate way. Analysis of this type of feedback is very valuable for 
BOINC too. Because BOINC is not only about hardware, BOINC idea will not 
work w/o human part, w/o participants.
As was stated already this part of BOINC was adequately understood before, 
but looks like forgotten now. So it's forth to study all types of negative 
feedback IMO.
