You have users; you have developers; presumably, the developers
develop things that the users want, or am I being presumptuous there?
A little, I think. If developers would implement everything that users
ask for, I don't think that would necessarily yield good software.
(I'm a Apple desktop user myself, I know Apple is a big no-no on lots
of open source mailinglists, but they do seem to get it IMHO.)
Making it hard for either users or developers to communicate with
each other is a Bad Thing (tm).
The point is not making communication hard, the point is getting
feedback that usable and to the point. That is harder for users than
being able to throw random messages at developers, but it might just
be a better idea in the end. Maybe you don't agree, sure.
Well, any project can take the attitude that this is "free software
- you get what you pay for". The successful ones are those that take
things to the next level and do things properly, including managing
bugs/enhancement requests better.
Saying creating an account and selecting categories is too much
trouble doesn't really sound like you want to put any effort in seeing
those projects go forward. I totally understand that those projects
focus on people that do put some effort in. It's a give and take
situation.
