The best answer I can find is: your bugs/suggestions were certainly not
urgent enough to be taken into account by a far-too-small development team
who is all the time under very tight time schedule..


My best advice is for you guys out there:

. use a good subject header; tis a resume of your message; you need to be
informative

for example:

`X server problems'

-> `X server won't start on my ATI mach64 when I use XF4'


. avoid flames, pleease, this is waste of your and our time.


. be clear, informative, short

You don't need to lose your time, daily, that way.

The best you can do is to extensively test the beta & final versions.

Cooker is just for development people.
