No offence is intended but it does help get the point across.

I am actually surprised the post made it to the list, other posts I have
sent went into the black hole that is the internet - go figure.

Sure this is only a single issue, but illustrates my point.
File-Name case issues, initially reported ages ago, reported more recently
by somebody who didn't give up - and after considerable debate now some work
has been done on it. Btw I am not wanting to re-hash the issue.

I do realize the nature of developing this product - most of the developers
use *nix, that itself makes it difficult as hell to test or even write
windows specific code. But then again your at 1.0, these "simple things"
should have already been dealt with.

Suppose it comes down to this - when in rome do as the romans do.

You offended quite a number of people with this statement. (Not me
personally.) If you want to make statements like these could you please
provide a list to substantiate when and how issues were not adequately
addressed?

Also, have you read the mailing list archive wrt this specific issue?

Thanks,

Erik.
