Hi,
Its rather obvious that all the work done on Tomcat is on a volunteer basis, wiht no paid staff. I never said it was. And I did do my homework. All I did was ask a simple question on the mailinglist. Nobody forced them to donate additional time and energy to my project, whatever that means. I was simply frustrated to not be able to find the changelog in what I considered the "usual places". I happen to use a fairly large amount of open source software, so I have an idea of how the process works, and understand how valuable their time is. I'd rather they spend their time developing and let another user tell me where the changelog is, without having to be insulted (since not being able to find something is a clear sign of not doing your somework and deserving someone's pity?). But whatever, I don't care, I know where the changelog is now, and hope to someday tell somebody else who can't find it where it is without being a dick about it.
