What use would the mailing list be if it consisted only of a mutual backpatting society? We NEED to hear from people who are *dissatisfied* for whatever reason, otherwise Camino will die on the vine. > I think that the fact that Camino is open source and maintained > largely by volunteers who update it regularly based on user feedback, Well...sometimes but not always.

If one is not willing to do a proper job, one ought not to volunteer. > silly threats (�I�m ditching browser X for Y unless you do > everything I want and then some!�) are not appropriate nor are they useful. Please, the man didn't issue a "threat". He stated a fact. And it's *very* important, because without users, Camino (or any other app) may as well not exist. Developers need to know if they're doing or not doing something that's causing potential users of their app to say "Forget it" and walk away. Sooner is better than later on this.
