Excuse me,

Aslak for sure did not criticize free software. It's you that did!
Anyway, maybe you don't understand that Aslak is one of these volunteers.

Some ignorant comments aside, there's some truth in what you say. And I 
apologise, I let my frustration at xdoclet get to me. I'm not sure that 
you're correct in your criticism of free software though, sure some 
will fail regardless of technical merit because the community fails to 
support it properly but I don't think that's a reason to go running 
back to commercial software straight away, but you're entitled to your 
opinion of course.
