Excuse me ?
You should maybe read what I posted on cooker last time this issue was
brought up, I may even have already posted the link here
<A HREF="http://lists.mandriva.com/cooker/2010-08/msg00358.php">http://lists.mandriva.com/cooker/2010-08/msg00358.php</A>
Developers ( and people who contribute in general ) are free to act as
they want, there is no place for "MUST" in a community of volunteers, be
it for free software or for association. While there is case where it
will not work
( <A HREF="http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2010/10/04/101004fa_fact_gladwell?currentPage=all">http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2010/10/04/101004fa_fact_gladwell?currentPage=all</A> ), i think that we are no in such case.
If you still think that's not true and try to coerce developers into
reading users "because they must do it", this will likely result in
obvious clash, with user being unhappy ( because of false promise and
false hope ), or a lack of growth in the contributers base ( with lose
due to the usual erosion ), and at worst, a exodus to others projects. I
do not know for others, but neither alternative seems good for me.
See also my mail on
<A HREF="https://mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-discuss/20100925/001191.html">https://mageia.org/pipermail/mageia-discuss/20100925/001191.html</A> on how
we should try to improve things, based on what I think to be logical
arguments.
