I'm reminded of a slashdot posting a while back:
http://science.slashdot.org/science/06/02/13/1324242.shtml Basically,
the article stated that email is misread quite a bit of the time.  I
don't think Michael called you stupid.  I'd be willing to bet that the
contributors on the list more than welcome bug reporting.  I also would
bet that they'll work hard to make sure there are as few bugs in each
release as possible.  So that being said.. just keep testing and
submitting reports of bugs.  There is no need to get worked up.  That
just detracts from the purpose of the list and causes you to loose
credibility among the subscribers.

Just my $.02.
