Yeah, sure, but that doesn't excuse them from the almost daily dumping of obviously half baked and/or hardly (not?) tested beta builds on the poor heads of their honorary testing crew. It now surely looks like RitLabs leaves all the dirty work to them. >Why not show a bit of gratitude towards a small business trying >to provide us with a still unsurpassed product. Unsurpassed at >least for those using it. Gratitude? "Thank you for providing me with a torch after leaving me on my own in the dark and cold depths of your scary Bat! cave?" As far as I understand, RitLabs as a commercial enterprise (albeit a small one) needs income, not gratitude. >As to "perspective", are we sure it's Mary, Dennis, me and lots >of others losing it, or could it be "the other camp" sometimes >loses it? I think your loss of perspective is heartwarming (and I really mean it!).
