Who would not after tons of bitching?
It's a fine line to walk when lobbying for change -- you have to push
hard enough, but not too hard, give credit, but not too much credit, and
so forth. From what I can tell, you've done a lot of good with the new
version, but every user has his own set of priorities as to which
features matter more or less.
And it's a reality of the human condition that people don't change as
long as they're comfortable. They only change when they're in pain. So
if someone wants you to change, they have to either put you in pain or
show you that you're already in pain or about to be in pain if you
continue on your current track. The squeaky wheel gets the grease 'n' all...
I've done enough politics to know that voters don't generally call to
thank you for picking up their garbage or plowing their snow, they call
to complain when you didn't see to it. This venue is no different.
